Abstracting over ownership in Rust with higher-rank type bounds?

Rust has long had an aim as having the best out of the box tooling and support for WASM. wasm-bindgen is a significant part of that ecosystem. Given that WASM is a primary target for the language, ensuring wasm-bingen is working before a release seems perfectly reasonable.

I don’t think they would make the same decision for lesser used crates or tools that fail the crater build.

Seems like they have their priorities in good order.

It's also possible the GP interpreted this to mean "it won't ever be fixed in the compiler because that would be a breaking change for wasm-bindgen", which is a subtly different statement and I think I'd agree with them if that were the case
