I can't confirm that. Rust's safety features allow moving fast without fear of subtle bugs.

Developing in Rust can feel like fighting the compiler though when choosing approaches / architecture that aren't a good fit for Rust. This happens a lot when people only have little Rust experience. For example: Writing a linked list can be quite challenging in Rust due to self-referential types. With more experience in Rust, developer learn how to best structure the code so that it doesn't result in this friction.
