Re:Why Rust is a great choice for startups

When I see people complaining about "experimental", "new bleedy unstable" I always picture some weak developer complaining about the language not being Java 1.4 and having to learn other stuff that is different from enterprise OO invented after the year 2000. See Rust (7 years already), Haskell (older than Java), React (9 years).
They all miss their 5 million LoC mudball at the bank, because that's all they know how to do.
Where does a language magically go from "new bleeding unstable" to something you think is suitable to use at a startup ? Rust 1.0 was in 2015, seven years ago.
Do you think a startup should also avoid the "fancy new" ES6 with "let" and arrow functions ?
