I've never looked at any Rust. But this mini thread leaves me expecting the Rust world to be like Perl. The experienced Rust/Perl user uses every feature and short cut for magnificently dense expressive (alt. incomprehensible gibberish to anyone else) and doesn't comment it because the code is self evident. When actually they just want to code wank showing how clever they are and how lazy anyone else is if they haven't take the time to understand the details and thus understand.

But like I said, I've not looked at any Rust despite its marketing success.
