When you have a CLI for some network-based service, the network latency is going to be magnitudes larger than the performance differences between Go and Rust anyway. (Or at least in 99% of cases.)

some suggestions are that in the future, the I/O latency is going to get very low, network speeds very fast, etc.

Unless that 10-gig NIC messes with the speed of light, I don't see it reducing the RTT between me and some server in the US by any significant amount.
