I was more commenting on the Rust community being ready to make breaking changes.

Personally while I think Rust is a decent language it would not have caught on with younger devs if C/C++ didn't have such a shitty devex that is stuck 30 years in the past.

Younger people will always be more willing to break things and messing around with ancient and unfriendly build/dev does not attract that demographic because why waste time messing around with the build env that actually getting things done.

One day rust will be the same and the process will start again.
