There's also the problem of the people who are either too clever for their own good, or not nearly as clever as they think they are. Either group can produce horribly convoluted code to perform relatively simple tasks, and it's irritating as hell everytime I run into it. That's not unique to Rust of course, but the more tools you give to them the bigger mess they make.

And this is amplified by LLMs.

Before LLMs, only the author had a firm grasp of how their convoluted solution works.

Now sometimes not even the author knows wtf is going on among thousands of added lines of code.
