Engineers may prefer scripting languages like #Python over compiled languages like #Rust because they think it's quicker. However I find that even during incidents, you can totally build compiled CLI helpers in #Rust. They are easier to get correct, they are faster, and you can easily ship small static binaries to servers where you have stable network connections.
