I question if scientists ever should have to tackle the ins and outs of software architecture and performance optimization. Never mind the daunting task of running software.

I don’t really see Rust being altogether different to someone outside the software industry. It’s yet another complex knowledge domain that can be abused and intractable like any other.

I suspect the lines are not as cleanly drawn as anyone would like them to be, no more making programming unnecessary for scientists than they make cooking unnecessary for <insert non-chef profession here>.
