Embedded systems reportedly still mostly use C.
Consequently, C is the thing to which a language's merits must
be compared. If Rust managers manage to persuade C shops
to use Rust, the this is a reasonable attempt at improving C based
program production. If Ada influence the process, then
it has had a purpose. :-)
Perhaps it is easier to add guarantees to Rust programs
than to C programs. Also, C programmers might feel more
at home when using Rust. Java programmers also, even when
it is just curly braces.
