Yes.
There is a great deal of written information about Rust-the-language which exists only in compiler comments, RFCs, bug reports and internals.rust-lang.org threads (often slightly stale in all cases).
It's Rust's greatest weakness.
But "every time this comes up" the discussion somehow gets sidetracked into arguments about standardisation, even in cases (such as this thread) when it's clear that what the ranter cares about is accurate documentation.
