IDE tools like what? LSPs for Rust are on par / better than that of C/C++, partially because of language being stricter, no #include nonsense etc. Unlike C/C++, sane build system and dependency management system that are universally agreed upon actually exist. What exactly is "going take a while"?

I would assume debugger support. Rust is in a tough spot because a lot of code gets compiled away, and debuggers need to understand some Rust-isms for good experience, like enum support. I don't think this is an insurmountable situation, though.
People universally agree that replicating NPM's dependency hell was a good idea?
