Some arguments in favor of Rust:

• Microsoft use it too to rewrite parts of Windows because 70% of their bug fixes each year are related to memory safety. Something that can not happen in Rust.
• the engine Servo of Firefox is written in Rust

• a well complete and high-quality ecosystem: tooling (cargo, clippy, , community, IDE integration, Rust playground

BUT the learning curve is steep.
