Those who are enthusiastic are very much so. I would say it's less contentious compared to when Node.js started to become popular. It's still one of my favorite tools/languages, though I'd prefer to use Deno more these days.
As to falling back to any given language, that's not uncommon. Learning a new language is difficult, especially if the paradigms don't align well to what we already know, or have experience in. This may come down to experience, or it may come down to how you now think through problems. That said, I don't think that C++ is inherently more productive than Rust, I think saying your experience makes you more productive in C++ is a far more likely truth.
