If anything, it's a little surprising that the Rust code isn't significantly larger because I tend to think of Rust as requiring somewhat more boilerplate than JS.

The code was using Zig before, not JS.
Ah fair point. I don't have a sense of which of those are more verbose.
Zig is, typically. And yet here, the rust rewrite is around 60% more lines of code.
Not to mention how trigger happy LLMs can be when it comes to being overly verbose and adding unnecessary bits even with explicit direction not to do so.
