> There's a high amount of impedance mismatch trying to write GUIs in a non-GC language like Rust

Sorry, what does the idea of a user interface have to do with garbage collection? They seem entirely unrelated at first blush, and it's not difficult to find GUI code written in rust.

Immediate mode vs retained mode. It is not a hard requirement, but the borrow checker definitely makes the latter more complex.
