Use one of the many libraries that have safe abstractions over unsafe code? I don't know why people think you need to roll your own? I guess that's just what people do in c/c++, doesn't seem very productive...

There are definitely no less libraries for C++. I am a scientific software engineer, and occasionally I do develop new things. And Rust makes writing new system-level software way harder, which I don't understand, as it is a system-level language.
