I also haven't heard any reports from colleagues who have tried out
rust to a decent extent that borrow pointers are among the things that
make rust code hard to write.
'rust is hard' != 'borrowing is hard' .. also, I don't necessarily
think 'scope' would be identical to rust, it would be designed for D,
obviously.
