The best part is that it shows that they don't have a clue. If you are "forking" a project to change it language is not a fork is a rewrite. It would be one thing if they were adding rust to an already existing project, but as far as I can tell the project is full rust from the beginning.

But they can't say "I'm going to rewrite this in that other language" because that's the thing they hate about rust, so if they said that it would be too obvious that they're full of shit.
