Yeah Rust compiles slowly, so we need two more half-baked languages - Zig and Roc, both of which I couldn't care less.

Rust's slow compilation comes from lots of features and an excellent generated machine code quality. Both Zig and Roc will be equally slow or slower if they match what Rust offers.

If all they want is fast compilation, they can just try Pascal.
