> people are just correctly pointing out Rust would have helped this bug

So would a unit test or a fuzzer. But it's obvious this does not solve the actual problem, only a particular instance of it. It should be as obvious that mentioning Rust doesn't too. Kernel module in Rust may not have buffer overflow bugs (even that is not 100% certain, but let's assume for a minute) but it doesn't mean it's safe - or even significantly less unsafe.
