Rust and Haskell are difficult for completely different reasons. Rust is difficult for roughly the same reasons C++ is difficult.

I must protest - putting any language on par with C++ level of difficulty is unfair to C++. (Let's exclude malbolge and its relatives for a second)

I agree that rust is much less difficult than C++. But the things that are difficult about Rust are also difficult about C++… just less difficult, because the compiler helps you with them.
