> designed as an experiment

Ha. As if you could design such an experiment. What, you’ll place two rats at a keyboard and ask them to implement grep? Bffr.

I’m pointing out the obvious - no one has actually written these mythical C programs that outperform Rust, to say nothing about security and reliability. You’ve deluded yourself into thinking that all it needs is “an experiment”. lol.

The quoted text seems dictionary definition anecdote.
