There are recently some guides about how to build an operating system in Rust. Rust is innovative and great, but also brings complex new ideas. Can it slow down learning and implementing because the developer have to dedicate too much time to the language itself?

I believe that building a full blown OS requires dedicating so much time that this overhead due to the language itself will not be significant. On the other hand, without the sufficient experience with the language itself, it's easy to run into problems that will consume a significant amount of time
