You merely explain why you can't copy the implementation strategy.

But that says nothing about providing the same value to the user in other languages via different means.

You merely assume an alternative implementation strategy exists and that it provides the same value to the user.

But that says nothing about whether it actually can exist.

Huh, where am I making that assumption?

Yes, I expressed no opinion on that.

You didn't, and you didn't express any opinion on whether or not it can exist, either - GP is arguing dishonestly to shill Rust.

Which is really a shame. Rust is a nice enough language that it doesn't need dishonest shilling.
