I had some Scala 3 feelings when reading the vision, I hope Rust doesn't gets too pushy with type systems ideas.
That is how we end with other ecosystems doubling down in automatic memory management with a good enough ownership model for low level coding, e.g. Swift 6, OxCaml, Chapel, D, Linear Haskel, OCaml effects,...
Where the goal is that those features are to be used by experts, and everyone else stays on the confort zone.
Finally seeing more movement on effects or what started as keyword generics, there was a big blog post a few years ago but not much public facing news although of course they've been working on it as Yoshua says in the post.
I truly do wish we get closer to Ada and even Lean in terms of safety, would be great to see all these theoretical type system features become reality. I use the `anodized` crate right now for refinement type features, and who knows, maybe we get full fledged dependent types too as there aren't many production languages with them and certainly not popular languages.
