Then it might work out fine, I don't know.

In general I have to work off of their purported goals and priorities to get a feel for where the final destination of the language will be when it's more complete.

If they say they aren't going to prioritize machine semantics, C-level runtime performance, or systems-grade control over code generation then I have assume those priorities will fall wayside to the established priorities of safety and concurrency.

I'm not saying Rust will "fail" like Go seems to be doing so far, I'm just saying I don't think they're going to prioritize making Rust useful for driver development[1].

[1] Which I think is brilliant anyway. It's solving a very hard problem that needs solved.
