To me, the main draw looks to be the invariants that you can supply within functions, but this isn't a new concept outside of it being a dedicated keyword. Otherwise this looks like rust without all of the functionality

just document the impure operations and stop forcing the programmer to type extra characters.
I'm not really sure what niche this fills.

It looks like a mix between zig and rust I would say
