I think both arguments have credibility.

The R4L says they will make sure the Rust code is fixed when the C code is, and that's admirable, but the concern it means a developer now has to wait for that, holding up their work for release/submission. The bus factor is now on the R4L team.

Meanwhile, everyone involved in development for Linux already knows C.

They do not have to wait.

That's apparently still unclear according to the LKML.
