What he doesn't mention is that compared to other languages many
of the algorithms and programming models will not work in Rust
and you have rethink them often making them more complicated and
slower. Therefore I think Rust is a bad fit for "system
programming".
The entire talk is about evangelizing Rust contrary to what he
says. He also says he constantly have to add more stuff into the
language in order to make work better as a systems programming
language which kind of contradicts the idea that Rust is suitable
for system programming.
There are other languages that can do anything C can without any
changes to the language.
