Interesting, I'm newer to the field so I say I saw this more particularly with the rewrite in rust crowd, yes rust does have certain aspects better than cpp but does not mean every cpp project would benefit from a rust rewrite. Also is the claim on strongly type programs true? like is it better overall or just better given some specific points?
Would you like the claim on strongly-typed programs to be true/false? Or would you like it to be true/false/null. Or 0 or not-0. Or truthy. Or uninitialised memory.
