Isn't it also funny that all of these things are done by the same person?

In all seriousness though, let me assure you that I plan to take a very considerate approach to Rust in APT. A significant benefit of doing Rust in APT rather than rewriting APT from scratch in Rust means that we can avoid redoing all our past mistakes because we can look at our own code and translate it directly.

Honestly having seen trainwreck after trainwreck after trainwreck come out of Canonical for the last decade, I'm sure I'm not the only one that has strong doubts about anyone associated being able to "avoid redoing past mistakes" or to make things not suck.
You have never been skilled at being considerate:

Christ that was handled badly.
Seems reasonable. I wish you would have written that in your original message. Good luck…
