okay so i ran a few numbers
got every rust crate used by at least one gentoo package, sort | uniq, then merged together the crates that fill the same major (i.e. nya@1.5.3 and nya@1.8.2 would output only nya@1), this would mimick cargo-install's behaviour of ignoring the lockfile
it totaled to 4244 crates, and grepping out `^windows` we get 4167 crates
note that the whole of ::gentoo has 30714 packages, meaning adding crates as individual packages would be a 13.5% increase in the package count
yay for the npm effect
