Frankly this is a very bad decision. Because now you have C code, Rust code, and yet another language's code, and you're left with a mess that you have to integrate too.
Obviously I was demonstrating that I don't shill for Rust in particular -- I simply believe C/C++ are not cutting it anymore. Rust is not perfect but it solves a sizeable chunk of their problems, that's all.
