I mean that in Rust, you have to work kinda hard to drop an error on the floor and leave it unhandled.

It's easy and idiomatic to write code which calls `unwrap`, so that's what everybody does when they don't want or need to write sophisticated error handling code. But that's not the same as forgetting to check a return value — when something goes wrong, `unwrap` panics.

I mean, if you're determined you can definitely drop an error in Rust, e.g. with a `match` arm that does nothing. But the easy path is to `unwrap`.
