Funnily enough, Haskell also fulfills all the listed qualities.

How many jobs are out there where they expect you to know Haskell?

More than for Rust, given its age.

Not sure that this is true now, but willing to bet my career that this won't be true in 3 years.

Depends on how much people feel like writing userspace code with the usability of a language designed for kernel, drivers and GPPGU programming.

That is not a coincidence :) I like Haskell a lot but at this point I am willing to bet that I will never be paid to write it. It fells like community of 'people like me' have collectively decided that Rust, not Haskell, is their best bet for a better life, and I'm fine with that.
