Heavily disagree. Usually, compiler tells you how to fix your errors. You still need solid grasp of language.

The borrow checker can be hard to follow occasionally.

Your solid grasp of the language may be different or the same as my hard to write. But neither would be confused with utterly ambiguous C. The counterpart to borrowing in C would be it's antithesis in Rust, aliasing.

That said I'm on my learning curve and my opinion could change.

When was the last time you used Rust?

I ask this, because newer versions of Rust have suggestions how to fix your code, which may get you out of borrow checker fight.
