    Well until you are deep into trait/future/generic territory. Because then you’ll go in big fuck (full type being in a separate file) not being correct somewhere in this shit.

    Don’t get me wrong, I love rust. But those area really need some love

      Still much better than C++ templates, and I say that as someone who used to genuinely love C++ template metaprogramming. Admittedly Rust traits+generics are far more limited than C++ templates, but very often I find that to be a positive. The list of things that I feel traits+generics are missing is small and rapidly shrinking.
