    @solardirus @SorteKanin Maybe Go is easier to read in a word-for-word sense, but when I read a program, I want to understand what it does and why it works the way it works. I want to validate its properties to build a mental model of how pieces interact.

    As soon as I start doing that I find Rust is much easier to reason about, because the compiler enforces a lot of properties that I rely on, whereas with Go I end up looking through multiple files to get the same picture.
