Unexpected productivity boost of Rust

Code written below your line gets executed if you don't return early. More breaking news at 8.

Seriously, why would you think that assigning a value would stop your script from executing? Maybe the Typescript example is missing some context, but it seems like such a weird case to present as a "data race".

exit(), execve(), and friends do immediately stop execution—I could understand why you'd think a redirect would as well.
