I'm sure they look more mature, but they might leave a bad impression. Rust already has "bad PR" with the borrow checker, so libraries being more conservative before bumping versions might work in its favour. Otherwise you might get a bad impression from the language and apparently immature libraries.

For me the borrow checker is what I find interesting about rust.

I wouldn't call it bad pr.

The people talking about it generally complain about it. Those comfortable with it generally aren't talking about it. I don't know what else to call that than bad PR. Just the nature of the beast.
