In an alternative timeline, had Rust 1.0 been available when Docker pivoted away from Python into Go, and Kubernetes from Java into Go, due to having Go folks pushing for the rewrite, and most likely they would have been taken by RIIR instead, nowadays spreading across Python and JavaScript ecosystem, including rewriting tools originally written in Go.
