>it has to do with being battle tested over time. If a team of humans had rewritten it in a week, I wouldn't trust or use it either. "it was made in a week" gets repeated a lot on HN, but the PR wasn't a release. They've been working on the rust rewrite for more than a month and it hasn't shipped.

One week to four weeks doesn't make it better.

  Did you miss the part where they said "it hasn't shipped"?

    Do you think it won't? How many weeks do you think it'll take to review all that code, or do you admit a 1M line PR is unreviewable?

> They've been working on the rust rewrite for more than a month and it hasn't shipped doesn't make any difference the point is, users haven't been using it for years, like the original there is absolutely no way that you can internally test all the use cases that users encounter, especially with such a large code base
