My question:
In which scenarios would you recommend to switch to Rust? When does it provide a clear advantage over Python?
Of course, Python can be fast enough, and decisions like these are tradeoffs. Still, you'll have to invest a lot of DevOps time in Python to achieve a fraction of the reliability and safety guarantees Rust (and its tooling) provide—a high-level summary of the book's first chapter.
