Rust can do complex graph processing, as well as efficient easy memory management, but it's going to do it in a different structure than a GCed lang would. Hence my statement that 1 to 1 translation was the primary factor.

Yes and so what? There's 35 for .NET or 74 for C#, yet you don't see people claiming the C# cult was harassing the TS team.

Obviously, C# is one of Microsoft's flagship language along with TypeScript.

So it's expected to be frequently mentioned there.

  • Sure, and Rust is the most used language for modern TS/JS tooling, outside of TS/JS. There would have been substantial ecosystem benefits had Rust been chosen.

    • Do you have a source for that?

      Because esbuild is Go. tac was TypeScript and will be Go. Bun is Zig.

      Come to think of it. I don't use a single Rust tool for the web. node is c++. deno breaks too much.

      So, do you have a source for your claim?
