They sold it to a small percentage of devs. That is sufficient 
since Rust is the only wellknown language with a borrow checker.

Rust is not a good language for most devs, the ones Rust is good 
for are already using it.

Go instead with optimization hints and checks on that, with 
static analysis that tells the programmer what has to be changed 
to get better performance.

A good type system cannot easily be evolved. It has to be built, 
bottom up, on a theoretical foundation. This is why the @live 
approach is unlikely to succeed.
