I agree with this. However memorizing the borrow checker rules has led me to architect code “more correctly” upfront and consider things like ownership that I was otherwise pretty lax about ahead of time before. I think this has made me more thoughtful even in other languages which I think has been a win for me.

That said, the tedious refactors are a real pain. I think we all hoped that rustc would be smarter by now. It has gotten better but it isn’t there yet.

Same for me. I think I write better code in other languages now.
