In 2016, yes.
All the way through the 80's up to the early 90's, C toolchains only mattered to those that were working on UNIX workstations and servers. On home computers it was just, yet another language, with compilers generating slower code than junior Assembly programmers.
So of course Rust has to catch up a few decades of market use.
