IMO it’s not opinionated enough. Golang for example doesn’t let you customize go fmt, while Rust does. Rust also has many ways to do things in general (mod.rs vs name_of_folder.rs for example) and seems to not want to provide a useful baseline for most projects via its standard library (unlike Golang).
But to go back to our subject: Rust is a great language and that’s all you need. I wish I could use it with unity.
The mod vs folder rs stuff is just embarrassing for Rust. I have no idea why they support more then 1 method.
The do it because the first one sucked ass and the second is a huge improvement but you still have to support the old way.
Which is which and why?

mod.rs is better, change my mind

I speculate that they wanted to support just `mod.rs`, but because VS Code became the editor for rust people hated seeing all tabs named `mod.rs`.
Golang is indeed much more opinionated. To quote @bcantril, "Go is like steampunk for programming."
