The person that response was directed at was attempting to use a mistaken similarity to C++ to paint Rust as a language that is not "sane". You appear to be injecting your own interpretation as to what this subthread is about. :)

I assumed you were contradicting this quote:

> This just means that the Rust language does not have the feature of being simple.

I really don't know what it means for a language to be sane, so it didn't make any sense to me that you were replying to that part. My bad.
