Either the author changed the headline to something less clickbaity in the meantime or you edited it for clickbait Pop_- (in that case: shame on you) - current headline: "Rust std fs slower than Python!? No, it's hardware!"
I disagree that it's clickbait-y. Diving down from Python bindings to ucode is ... not how things usually go. Doubly so, since Python is a very mature runtime, and I'd be inclined to believe they've dug up file-reading Kung Fu not available to the Average Joe.
