Except Rust's unsafe is even worse then any other 'unsafe' languages.

And while you can technically prototype in a other language, speed of iteration is always a bottleneck.

The only way to escape it is if You are an about master of language, the project you are working on and even the feature you are adding.

But that's a verry rare case scenario

I don't disagree btw. As a contractor I have found myself very often in a situation where Rust's slower iteration simply didn't work for me so I got back to Elixir and also relearned and started getting proficient in Golang.

Rust's slower iteration only disappears when you become a pro as you said and that's my main problem with it. I simply can't invest as much time and effort for free.
