I never thought about it but something clicked, a few months I started to learn Rust after years with Python, I must emphasize the fact that Python is as "clear" as it can be, is like writing boring English, take normal English, get rid of synonyms, there you go, Python. So I was really scared about Rust, yet after not long I started to understand it, don't get me wrong, borrows and lifetimes take time to grasp and I'm still battling, but without noticing my code started to look more functional, in fact I learned what functional was after the fact, Rust is not purely functional but you can do it if you like AFAIK or you could do OOP if that is your jam. You made some interesting points, I'll pay more attention to it, thanks.

Rust is great!
indeed it is, I'm really enjoying it, and the web ecosystem is getting very good, very fast.
Actix web rocks.
