I'm not sure how (or why) I'd google cargo-edit, because it's one of those things that you don't even think about until someone tells you about it, and then you're happy they did.
While I certainly wouldn't call myself a Rust expert, I'm no noob either, and am intensely interested in diving deep into topics like this. (Can we also dispense with the gatekeeping put-downs like "noob", please? It's unnecessary and rude.)
