> Quite a few big tech companies are either actively doing much of their new systems programming in Rust, or else dipping their toes in

I don't think that's true. It seems to me that a lot of people believe this simply because a lot of other people believe it. You see it everywhere. "Oracle rewriting MySQL in Rust". "Microsoft rewrites Skype in Rust". "Linus Torvalds rewriting Linux in Rust". I have yet to see proof of any of it.

It looks like you're actively avoiding finding that evidence.

Citing clickbait titles doesn't sound like you have actually looked.

It is true. I’m not basing my statements off random info I gleaned from the internet.
