> [...]it's pretty much a no-brainer to rewrite C in Rust, or at least to attempt it. Thank you for proving my point. To be clear: there are a lot of legitimate reasons to not rewrite a C projects in Rust, memory safety isn't a universal trump card that supercedes all other considerations in all projects; one has to be zealot to believe that. I suspect the majority of Rust users are rational about when Rust is appropriate (or not), but they are not going around in random bug threads demanding rewrites of multi-decade projects. |

Rust is not just C with memory safety!!
