Maturin wasn't powerful enough for our use cases, so we used raw setuptools-rust and cibuildwheel. Even with abi3 compat, yes it's not always easy to get the wheels exactly as you want.

And with a lack of ARM runners by default with GH actions, you'll most likely be paying for your own CI instances (or wait forever for cibuildwheel cross compilation/qemu). Also for others doing this, the rust-cache GH action saves a lot of rebuild time too.
