Hi Ken,

Thank you! Rust's compiler 确实是个严厉的伙伴 ("indeed is a strict partner" - as we say in some
programming circles). It might occasionally feel like fighting the borrow checker is 80% of the
work, but it certainly pays off in preventing whole classes of memory safety and concurrency bugs.

The type system and ownership model actually helped catch several potential issues during
development that would have been subtle bugs in other languages.

I appreciate you recognizing the effort that goes into writing Rust that actually compiles!

Best,
Hitokiri
