Agree that Rust is not a magical fix-all solution. Rust ensures memory safety and prevents data-races but there are still a whole universe of programming-error-induced vulnerabilities that Rust will happily compile and run.

Don't get me wrong, using a more restrictive language will help but it's not a fully-baked solution. We need more third-party tools to help us automatically verify the correctness of our programs. It shouldn't stop at compilers.
