I think this is weirdly resonated with me. I used moved to Rust from C for embedded programming, and realized that my whole paradigm shifted on how I write programs.

Rust is much more than safe(r) C, it is different approach of architecting apps to have safer relations between components. Now that I am looking at my old code, I see how it would benefit from this paradigm.

And it also a 'problem' with Rust - it requires one to think differently. You can write Rusty code in C, and indeed results are just better, but trying to write Rust in C style would lead to fighting compiler and suffering.

Other languages, like Zig or Go, they chose different approach - to decorate C with modern features, and that works too.

Learning Rust definitely made me a better C programmer.
