Why would you migrate from a language full of :: and <> and {} which forces you to think about weird concepts about memory, ownership, sharing and pointers, to migrate to a very similar language?

It's like stopping huffing paint to start huffing petrol.

While I don't agree to migrate, I do agree that new projects need to find a safer alternative to C++, do we have a better mature alternative at this point in time other than Rust? I'm not aware of any other that is production ready.

Also if your only complain in syntax then is just your taste, I would have considered if you have complains about issues with the language, one that I can think of is async/await that is a WIP.
