Rust can do complex graph processing, as well as efficient easy memory management, but it's going to do it in a different structure than a GCed lang would. Hence my statement that 1 to 1 translation was the primary factor.

Yes and so what? There's 35 for .NET or 74 for C#, yet you don't see people claiming the C# cult was harassing the TS team.
Sure, and Rust is the most used language for modern TS/JS tooling, outside of TS/JS. There would have been substantial ecosystem benefits had Rust been chosen.

CTRL+F "rust" on the Go issue and see how many results you get. 31 for me and that's before expanding spam.
