Rust doesn't allow type inference in function signatures, c++ does with auto. IIRC, they recommended against using it, because of -you guessed it- compile time.

Yeah, Rust already has major compile time issues.

TBH I thought it was for refactoring type safety. Making sure that the type is understood and not ready to just change wildly accidentally.

I thought that was part of the point - simplifying refactoring.
