I dunno,unlike the crypto/NFT era, Rust rewrites have demonstrated measured performance and memory savings gains. Some grimace when they see "written in Rust" as a tagline but my immediate thought tends to land more on the "thank God this isn't an electron app" side of things

Operative word is “fanboys”, I have mostly no qualms of actual rewrites to that language. It’s the fanboys who insist upon injecting themselves and their opinions everywhere with net negative impact.
