I think 2 languages are enough, we don't need a 3rd one that nobody asked for.
I have nothing against Rust. If you want a new tool, go for it. If you want a re-write of an existing tool, go for it. I'm against it creeping into an existing eco-system for no reason.
A popular Python package called Pendulum went over 7 months without support for 3.13. I have to imagine this is because nobody in the Python community knew enough Rust to fix it. Had the native portion of Pendulum been written in C I would have fixed it myself.

In my ideal world if someone wanted fast datetimes written in Rust (or any other language other than C) they'd write a proper library suitable for any language to consume over FFI.
So far this Rust stuff has left a bad taste in my mouth and I don't blame the Linux community for being resistant.
