They seem quite afraid of mentioning the basis for effects that Haskell, Scala et al have used for years - Monads.
So they’re going to re-invent it all 🙃
The Rust folks know their CS and PL theory. Of course they've considered monads.
The guy writing didn’t know about generics, so…. (to be clear, I trust the rust core devs know about these things, I’m implying that they are afraid to reference them directly because they think the M word will scare people)
