"Code no true C programmer would write", eh? And yet one did, in a high-profile, security-critical library. When you find Rust code like this in the wild, I'll start to believe in some kind of equivalence.


I guess we're going to get into a "No True Scotsman" situation, but given the OpenSSL codebase, I don't think the OpenBSD folks regard them as "true C programmers". Rust is only being used by enthusiasts currently, so I'm sure we will see code like that once it gets into the general population.
