Rust evangelism is probably the worst part of Rust. Shallow comments stating Rust’s superiority read to me like somebody who wants to tell me about Jesus.

Jesus wasn't written in Rust? Sounds like a recipe for UB if you ask me.

That's very funny, Jesus was pretty much undefined behavior personified from the perspective of the state/church.

it's not unique for Rust, C/C++ devs probably aren't just used to it, since there hasn't been anything major new for decades.

If you already dislike this, I ask you to read C-evangelism with respect to the recent Linux drama about Rust in Linux.
