Author here, long time no see Steve!

When I wrote this, my main takeaways were numerical computations with arrays, which don't tend to use for loops in Rust, and which require grokking iterators for maximum performance and rayon-parallelism boons.

To a Julia audience, seeing this style of iterator chaining is quite a new flavor to think about composing computation, so I wanted it was with that audience in mind that I wrote this.

Hey hey!

Yeah I think that makes sense! I don't do that kind of work and so it's more usual in the kinds of code I write.
