So it is not 100% contrary to some bombastic claims floating around.




I don't feel I was bombastic, simply ignorant. I knew there had been unsoundness bugs in the past, but I thought they had all been fixed at this point. I see why it is taking them so long to fix this one, but yes it is not 100%. I will rather say that I have had no segfaults from safe rust in the decade I've been using it, and that even after 35 years in c++ I still average a couple a month. Probably worse now because I'm rusty when I go back to use it for something. It could be argued I'm really bad at c++, and maybe that is true, but then maybe I shouldn't be using it, and should use rust instead, it allows me to get the same job done.
