I don't think it is about control. Rust is pain to program for novice,
exactly because it forces safety. Development time is also bigger. If
goal is safety in that kind of safety Rust is ok choice.
There were times I loved it (beginnings) then hated it, then I love it
again. One cannot be indeferent to Rust, that's for sure.
