Then your domain problem you’re trying to solve doesn’t benefit from Rust.

Sounds like your work doesn’t need Rust and that’s ok.

But don’t generalize.

Unless you're writing kernels, or high integrity systems with memory allocation constrains there is very little reason to use a language like Rust.

Everything that people find great on Rust with exception of the borrow checker, can be found in any compiled language from ML linage. And even that is fading away as they introduce a mix of linear types, dependent types, effects and formal logic.
