The funny thing is: All Rust source code looks like an assembly syntax error.

If you spend an hour skimming the Rust Book it's not really that bad

It's not that bad, but when compared to C or Go, it's not something that I would like to type by hand. At least Java has IDEs which reduce the amount of verbosity you need to type. I know you get safety, but the verbosity and cargo is is a con in my opinion.

Rust has autocomplete even in Sublime Text with an LSP... not quite as good as with Java, but I don't write either by hand much anymore.
