>It does seem a little odd that every comment about Rust gushes about its progress and stability without discussing any downsides.
Doesn't seem odd at all.
First, a lot of people commenting about Rust are enthusiastic recent adopters that haven't seen much of the language, including any real ugly sides yet.
Second, it's not entirely true, almost all Rust threads mention the steep learning curve, the slow compiler, and other issues such as the variadic generics (or lack thereof to be precise).
Third, we have seen the same "early adopter enthusiasts seeing it all rosy" circle for RoR, Go, Node, and Mongo, nothing out of the ordinary here.
