Which doesn't make it easier, since you might want to structure part of you application code as a reusable library.

It is entirely optional. I use Rust for two years now and work on a few things (biggest one around 10kLOC). I didn’t even read the Macro section in my books yet. Because I didn’t need to.

Most of the complexity of C++ is entirely optional too. That doesn't make the observation any less valid.
