My last interaction with Rust was when I commented that adoption would be hurt if they require an understanding of the memory model just to get started, to which they responded more or less that it's not a big deal.

Same here. Want to solve the C++ problem, solve compilation speed first. I can't see programmers suddenly willing to manage lifetimes explicitely, also I can see the Rust syntax create an endless stream of complaints.
