Personally I'm not even opposed to an OS written in something like Rust. But trying to lie to a bunch of C kernel developers that "no one's expecting you to learn Rust" when that's blatantly false if the Rust people get what they want from the effort is simply being disingenuous.
At least be honest to these people that you consider their skills obsolete in the modern world. That would be the honorable and respectful thing to do.
"We're not coming for your video games" the ideologues used to say.
They're now saying "we're not coming for your kernel".
As the saying goes, 'fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me'.
Means ''we are just going to crybully our way into every game we can as consultants, ESG money and government grants conditional to woke everything''.
Right. When Microsoft Research did their C#/.NET kernel back in the day they did their own thing instead of trying to bolt it onto an existing kernel. They weren't trying to tell a bunch of C kernel devs "no one's trying to force you to learn C#" as they try to rewrite major kernel subsystems in C#.
