Yes, but you assume all their projects need all 4 of these. I like Rust, but it's a bad choice for many areas (e.g. aforementioned application-level code). I'd expect serious decisions to at least take that into account.


I’m not assuming anything of the sort. These are just properties that make Rust a nice target for automatic translation of C programs; there are myriad factors that guarantee that nowhere close to 100% of programs (C, application level, or otherwise) won’t be suitable for translation.
