If you spent more time with rust your opinion of it would change. It's strength has nothing to do with rewriting software. It's easy to maintain, and pretty fast to write.

I prefer go for cloud integrations because they tend to have the best implementations and most solid APIs. That's about it though.

Python is a good bash replacement, but I don't like writing large projects in it. It's hard to maintain and the errors that come from production are never straightforward. Good for some medium scale mathy compute projects though.

C++ is where I write most math code after prototyping it elsewhere(R or Python)

Rust for me is the answer to most things except, it's ecosystem is a bit weak, and it's a bit of a clout chaser language(not as bad as others though)
