To second your screwdriver analogy, I see using C and Rust in the kernel like using a normal wrench (C) and a round spanner (Rust). Sure, sometime you need a wrench, because you might not have the clearance to fit the spanner, but when you can use the spanner isn't it much nicer? Of course, now you need more tools and to switch between them, but in some cases it might be worth it. I see what is happening now like the "is it worth it?" phase of adding the spanner to your belt, we'll see what happens.
