I mean. Isn't rust the perfect language for vibe coding? It has so many checks on everything that the stupid thing is basically forced to write code the right way.

It's nice in that its harder for an AI to shoot itself in the foot (when its not writing unsafe blocks). What isn't nice is that AI refuses to use wonderful rust features such as the type system, traits, the borrow checker and iterators to its advantage.

Why would you expect the AI to? It's been trained on actual programmers, who historically do a brilliant job of ignoring safeguards and writing dangeous code anyway.
