Not entirely true - e.g. Kotlin has null safety built into its type system, and I find it much nicer than the option/optional approaches used in various other languages.

Looks similar to the syntax in Swift. I agree - it’s much nicer than all the mucking around you need to do in rust.

It’ll never happen, but I wish rust added this kind of sugar on top of Option.
