I find it interesting that every single piece of software that was ever written in Rust always mentions that very proudly in its title. It's not something I see often with other programming languages (most software is just software and doesn't necessarily advertise the language it was built with). I do not know anything about Rust, so I'm just curious, does this confer a kind of underlying trustworthiness or quality to the application?

Yes we do, just look at the years following up the introduction of XYZ language, be it on BBS, Compuserve, Prodigy, Usenet, Dejanews, or whatever is the main communications channel of the day.
