I works in pretty low level OS code. I promise you most of our code would be unsafe. And using unsafe in rust is less ergonomic then using zig or c++.

We could use rust. But it wouldn’t give us anything.

This hasn’t been the finding of the R4L project. Go look at their code, it’s shockingly safe outside of the parts that interact with extern “C” symbols, which naturally need to be unsafe.
