And for the record, there's nothing wrong with the political game being a necessary challenge to overcome. The toxicity is wrong, but the politics is not necessarily bad on the face of it. The Rust community is not going to get anywhere with the presumption that they're always right and everyone needs to toe the party line about memory safety yesterday or else. The Rust community tends to be bad at politics and makes that everyone else's problem.
