> Rust's day-1 error handling story was significantly worse than that of most recent languages (e.g. Swift, Typescript, Kotlin, Dart, just going down Wikipedia's list of significant languages). And it's not clear what Rust gains from that...
Not sure I understand... All these other recent languages you mentioned were released after Rust, so Rust couldn’t have benefited from them on day 1. The opposite happened: most of these other languages took design lessons from the languages that preceded them, including Rust.
