Yeah, hard to not be overly verbose. “No massive dependencies with long build times and deep abstractions!” Is not as catchy.

No dependencies in this case (and pretty much any rust project) means: to build you need rustc+cargo and to use you just need resulting binary.

As in you don't need to have C compiler, python, dynamic libraries. "pure rust" would be a better way to describe it.
