Thank God this VMM is written in Rust, otherwise I would be very skeptical. I don't care about features or purpose or technical advantages, give me Rust or give me death.

For real, I find it so odd to tack on "written in Rust" to every new project that's announced that uses Rust. (As someone who uses Rust in their day job)

because languages matter more than people like to admit

yes you can write OOP in C , but please don't

and you can write fp code in Java .. this one I am not so sure about, but I would say its still better to just use scala or clojure if you must JVM, and use just use ocaml and drop the no-tail-call-optimization-jvm

the point is .. languages matter
