Should development ever wind down, you already have the advantage of being able to announce it as "Zed's dead, baby" instead of clunky corporate euphemisms.

Fabulous point. Always good to have solid contingency plans.

In the meantime, zed.dev, baby, zed.dev.

They should name its engine or one of its components "Chopper".

yet another buzzword we hear a lot these days: Zed is “lightning fast”… I hear that a lot about Rust projects, like Kitty or Alacritty

Lightning fast must be an upgrade from the blazing[ly??] fast days. Tangential, but I've been wondering, what comes after "web scale" on that axis?
