Porting perfectly working C code that has been in production for decades (and has a great track record wrt to security fixes) to rust is more or less an obfuscation challenge.

In the early 1990s, C++ had not yet been standardized by ISO, so your argument doesn’t apply to that period.

I share the same perspective .. I was also wondering how UDA handles the problem of evolving schemas, "old clients" communicating with newer server or vice versa.

Buggy/incomplete Openapi codegen for rust was a huge disappointment for me. At least with grpc some languages are first class citizens. Of course generated code has some uglyness. Kinda sad http2 traffic can be flaky due to bugs in net

5) Well how much of those kernel-level drivers we rely upon ARE written in a memory unsafe language ??? Like 99% ? And we are not crashing and dying every day? Sure, Rust is the way to go. it just took Rust 18 years to mature to that level.
