Most Rust libraries are not dynamically linked; instead, versions are pinned and included statically during the build process. This is touted as a feature.

Only a few projects are built as system-wide libraries that expose a C-compatible abi interface; rsvg comes to mind.

It's not touted as a feature by any Rust developers I know of. The Rust ABI is merely still stabilizing. See: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105586
