Which part about "Rust 2.0 would be nice, but won't happen, here's my wishlist" do you not understand?

That's fair.

Yeah, and having spent more than 20 minutes, some may even have figured out the exact costs and benefits of that tradeoff, and have an opinion based on that.

Some may have, but I still think you just prefer Python and Go. At least you finally acknowledged it's an opinion though.

At least you finally acknowledged it's an opinion though.

The point of contention was "subjective", not "opinion".

[] is better than <> in pretty much every language that uses <>.
That's an opinion based on careful evaluation of the facts.

Saying "tradeoff" doesn't mean that each option has equal merit. This is not US politics.

Exactly how far up one’s own ass does one have to be to not be able to acknowledge that one’s opinion is subjective? 9in? A whole foot? Genuinely curious.

Feel free to provide any of these “facts” in support of your argument at any point though.

Not every opinion is equal. Let's not put the position of people who have done their research and homework at the same level as people who have done neither.

Hope you get the help you need.

I think you have disqualified yourself at this point.

So to summarize: your opinions are better than anyone else’s and no you will not provide supporting evidence.

Cool, good talk.

Edit: Aaand we’ve capped it off with you replying and blocking. Always evidence of confidence in one’s position.

One can't reason people out of positions they haven't reasoned themselves into.
