A comment on Why you should, actually, rewrite some of it in Rust. Parent comment
Your argument does apply to Ada, but freeing from the heap in Ada is unsafe, which has made it difficult to use in a safe way for a lot of cases.
Rust really does make an advance in this regard: safety, and no significant runtime requirements.
D and modern C++ might work for disciplined teams, but seem a few steps behind rust safety-wise.
