> Rust was literally invented to solve the security and concurrency issues inherent in using C/C++ for a browser engine.

Are most browser vulnerabilities not still found in engines like V8? Rust can help with something like last year's buffer overflow in libwebp (although that's overkill when a project like https://github.com/google/wuffs exists), but I'm unclear on how it gets you a better JIT.
