The specific claim I was responding to was that all of uv’s performance improvements come from algorithms rather than the language. My point was just that this is a stronger claim than what the article supports, the article itself says Rust contributes “a bit” to the speed, so it’s not purely algorithmic.

I do agree with the broader point that algorithmic and architectural choices are the main reason uv is fast, and I tried to acknowledge that, apparently unsuccessfully, in my very my first comment (“I don't doubt that a lot of uv's benefits are algo. But everything?”).
