That's more-or-less what I'm getting at. Apple can't replace Objective-C with Swift and expect people to not cock their head. They can either support a pre-existing language (like Microsoft with Rust) or home-bake something suitable for low-level development. Telling developers to not use the stuff they want to use sorta leaves their hands tied.

Microsoft's Rust support is basically non-existing for GUI applications, Rust/WinRT is miles away from achiving C++/WinRT parity, even more so with C#.
In its current state is only useful for CLI or services, unless you feel like doing WinUI team's work for free.
