I don't see this hate in Rust. I think this is a big thing in the C-related languages, and that the author has chosen to pretend that's the same for any "systems language" but it is not.

Nor it is in C++. Most default flag setup will report implicit conversions on numerical as error in C++
Unsigned / signed is mainly an issue if your language chose to silent implicit conversions.
Which honestly, is terrible design beyond simply signed / unsigned.
