Even through it has some flaws, e.g. it's not fully memory safe (there are some programming languages that are even safer, like Ada)?

As a C++ developer Rust's borrow checker is very interesting - it promises to solve my issues with C++ without the issues that make other languages (ie Java, Python...) have in the real world. (remember we choose C++ for a reason, Java isn't correct for our application - if Java is correct you should use that instead)

If you learn Rust, you'll find that you'd choose it over C/++ even without the brrow checker. Every little part of the development experience is just so much better.

Maybe. I have millions of lines of c++ and making rust work with them will often be more work than just implementing the feature in c++
