This perspective just shifts the problem one meta-layer up: one side (Rust advocates) considers compiler-enforced memory safety to be a trump card, while the other side does not. So side A is "right" because they have the trump card who they played, but side B is also "right" in that they don't consider the stupid card that side A played to be a trump. The rest is drama.
Thus, instead of drama, we get meta-drama, i.e. nothing has changed.
