An other major safety difference is that Rust uses destructive moves, once a binding is moved-from it becomes invalid / inaccessible (and it won't be destroyed).

In C++, a moved-from object is in a "valid but unspecified state", so it must be destructible (because destructors always run) but any interaction with the object other than destruction may be UB, and the compiler won't tell you (in the same way it won't tell you about borrowing issues whether it's UAF, invalidation, ...).
