It’s like Python describing itself as fast. Everyone knows that means “fast enough for intended use”, not “fast in an absolute sense”. But for some reason when Rust describes itself as safe people take that to mean in an absolute sense.
Rust scores a lot higher on the safe scale than Python scores on the fast scale. Also, who are these mythical people that call Python fast?
Python calls itself fast in its own webpage:
