Today is Jun 15. So, I wonder if somebody + AI can rewrite curl in Rust in 1.5 months. I think it's possible if that person knows all curl features. However, does that person even exist?

curl used to have rust in it, dropped it 1.5 yrs ago. AI doesn't help with the hard parts here i don't think.

They dropped the hyper backend, but that wasn’t the only Rust code in tree.

If that were possible it would already have been done.
