Tbf, you have to be pretty far with Rust to get to a point where Rust's compiler errors stop helping you (at least, as far as I've seen). After that, it's pretty much the same
Would know, I've never had a runtime error in Rust /s
Can't have a runtime error if you don't have a compiled binary *taps forehead*
(For the record, I say this as someone who enjoys Rust)
This is actually unironically a major benefit of Rust - compile time errors are supposed to be for dev mistakes and runtime errors supposed to be for user mistakes. Way easier to debug something at compile time instead of runtime.
