No, but why the reluctance? Not that you must learn it, but being open to learning new things as an engineer (or just about anyone) is generally positive.

Not OP but Rust is a skill I’d like to prioritize if I were more confident in being allowed to use it professionally. It seems most employers feel (maybe rightly) they’re better off using Blub languages and renting more hardware.

It’s not enough to find one Rust shop, I need to expect the next shop also to value the time I invested.
