I really like rust™ as a language. but their foundation does some drama every 6 months.
I was almost done with "the book"(their official book) when this draft policy came out. they have since backed up a bit, but I really don't want to see 'oracle 2'.
they say they're not going to do an oracle because 'trust us'. i'm indecisive ever since.
I love pattern matching, I want to have 8 different ways of creating strings. what I don't like is the way foundation wants it to go.

but if in the future I wish to make anything with rust, I'll use the trick you mentioned :)
