This is a terrible suggestion.

Rust is accessible to everyone now that Claude Code and Opus can emit it at a high proficiency level.

Rust is designed so the error handling is ergonomic and fits into the flow of the language and the type system. Rust code will be lower defect rate by default.

Plus it's faster and doesn't have a GC.

You can use Rust now even if you don't know the language. It's the best way to start learning Rust.

The learning curve is not as bad as people say. It's really gentle.

Rust is the best AI language. Bar none.
