Rust-based JS engine that isn’t just AI generated unsafe everywhere

Tbf only 4% of the code was unsafe after the rewrite, which is much better than the 100% of the Zig code being unsafe. Honestly it's not surprising you'd have such a large amount of unsafe when you translate Zig to Rust. But as I understand it, it's since been refactored to much less than 4%.
