Why not bypass Node.js entirely and write the service(s) directly in Rust? Am I missing anything?

Not everyone knows Rust, but JavaScript is widely known. A library that delivers Rust-level performance without requiring developers to learn anything new would likely be very popular. That being said, if you need Rust performance, it's a better idea to just learn Rust. Is not that hard.
Every one need node so who gonna migrate all those legacy code bases to some other language just to get extra perf...?
not every one do need node
