Re:Why you should, actually, rewrite some of it in Rust

So your argument is that because rust doesn't solve all problems people shouldn't strongly consider replacing C code with it, even though rust avoids entire classes of critical bug types in C?
I happen to like rust, though I would not suggest that it is the only solution to the classes of problems it avoids. I would, however, suggest that people very strongly consider using languages that avoid the problems that rust avoids whenever possible. Like, literally any time you're considering writing C or C++, at least strongly consider rust or another much safer option.
