Every week or so there seems to be drama about some old dude shouting about how rust in the Linux kernel is bad. Given all the open hostility, is there easier way for R4L to continue their work?

Rust, IMO, provides a set of convenient features (borrow checker, RAII, generics, sane operator overloading, opt in unsafety) while leaving out ones that get pretty invasive and are hard to use in an embedded context (exceptions, new/delete operators, GC).
