On cloudflare I am almost sure that Rust is supported with compilation to WebAssembly.

Ah yes, thanks for pointing out that it's compiled to WASM... I meant in comparison to other languages like Python were it's compiled (transpiled?) to Javascript: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/platform/languages...

Using Python for Workers was weird, and it felt like you needed to be both a Python and JS expert to make it work.

It is indeed - but why is that relevant, or somehow undesirable?

It is not undesirable in the least, it was a response to "native" which for rust usually means "compiled to x86/arm/risc-v/etc

Rust and WASM with some combination of Container Orchestration through block-chained nodes which only come online when you are not using your phone and willing to power the transactions.

Cloudflare Workers and KV @ the Edge can do a lot to manage the control plane.
