Most official Rust projects are dual MIT/Apache licensed by convention [1] (and most Rust libraries from third parties I've seen that are open source MIT follow the MIT/Apache dual license), so seems like this library shouldn't just be AGPL for a typical political choice of a Rustacean?

official projects are usually run by sensible people who want to do things and aren't leading with ideology.

We're literally talking about an "X but in Rust" project already...
