We are talking about extremely competent people who worked on a critical piece of software for years and invested a lot of their lives in it, with all pain, effort, experience, and responsibilities that come with that.

I was expecting the whole Rust thing to be shut down 10 times, in a flow of distasteful remarks, already.
This means that not only Rust is vindicated as promising for the job, but both teams are willing and up to the task of working on the integration.
Those projects are exhausting, highly under-pressure situations, and they last a long time.
I still find that the report is showing a positive outcome. What do people expect? Move fast and break things?
A barrage of "no" is how it's supposed to go.
