That's understandable. I've just tried to prove the point that Rust is still a language in flux compared with Go, hopefully making the Rust team aware why some developers hesitate to use Rust on new projects.

That's not what I've seen from your comments. Instead I've seen some confused arguments about what "prose only" means (anyone in the PL field would consider both Rust and Go's documentation "prose"), combined with incorrect statements about both Rust and Go and a completely baseless assertion that Rust is "a language in flux".

I disagree, but I doubt that we're going to agree, so this is where I will step out.
