Yeah, we agree on this. What I don't agree with is the "avoid using concepts" part, because it came across in an unconditional way. > And again, that's not a case for saying "nah, rust is not a good fit, it > can't do easy-to-use-lists", but rather a good opportunity to think > twice about the containers we want to use. I think I never implied that you were saying anything along the lines of "rust is not a good fit" in any way. No idea where this comes from. :)
