That’s probably because you’re not used to it. I think it’s common knowledge that Golang is easy to read.

Couldn't the same be said of rust though? The biggest barrier, in my experience, is almost always familiarity with the syntax.

I work mostly with Rust, and have been for years, and no I wouldn't say that Rust is easy to read. It's easier to read than most legacy languages, but it's nothing like Golang.

Pretty much this, yes.

I think my comfort with Rust moreso comes from it feeling like any other C-ish language in appearance. It reads as expected to me.
