> I don't get how someone could think making a CRUD app in Rust could ever be a good idea

It's the same people than have kept saying there is nothing wrong with writing a backend API server in C++.

Of course you can write a CRUD app in Rust. You can also write it in Brainfuck, such is the magic of Turing-complete languages. Is it a good idea? I'd argue there's languages that are much better suited to writing CRUD systems than either.
