Presumably they are saying that you'd end up using a lot of `unsafe`. Of course, that's still much better than C, but I assume that their point isn't "You can't do it in Rust" it's "You can't translate directly to safe rust from C".

Exactly. "can't translate to safe Rust" is not a good faith argument.

If anything, writing unsafe code in Rust is also fun. It has many primitives like `MaybeUninit` that make it fun.
