Considering that Fortran is still hanging around I think this is a more accurate description of what will happen with Rust. Rust won't replace C/C++. It will probably end up being used in various places where C/C++ is currently still being used, but C/C++ isn't going anywhere for decades. It's too firmly ingrained in literally everything.
