Using unwrap() in Rust is okay

I'm confused, you seem to be saying opposite things. You're saying authors don't use unwrap when it should panic, and in the next sentence, you say they use unwrap (which causes a panic) when the failure could be gracefully recovered.

Heh, GP (I assume) and I initially parsed it as "don't just-use" (don't simply use) rather than "don't-just use" (don't only use).
