Are you going to write a "quick program" in C, though? That is what we are comparing to, when we consider kernel development.

I wouldn't argue that Rust is a good replacement for Makefiles, shell build scripts, Python scripts...

An amazing thing about Rust, though, is that you actually can write many "quick programs" -- application level programs -- and it's a reasonably good experience.

of course not, for kernel development. and in those cases, you WILL statically analyze.
