If you want or need the guarantees Rust provides, then go ahead and use Rust. If you want to handle the guarantees yourself, then Rust may not be the language for you. You can still have bugs whether or not you use Rust, so your Rust program may have some form of unsafety. In Linux, a Rust program with setuid root can lead to privilege escalation vulnerabilities, even if it doesn't contain a single line of "unsafe" code.

Either way, telling someone they have to pick between using a safe language like Rust and writing "semantically gibberish" is a false dichotomy. Please don't call programs written in memory-unsafe languages semantic gibberish until you prove that there are absolutely zero bugs in your program.

I think you have both misread the comment you replied to and misunderstood the concept of memory safety.
