Maybe they want a quick switchover and the UB is replicating existing problems so it is net neutral for the codebase (but positive future coz developers can do future work on rust without synchronizing two codebase? ).

If that was true, then I would expect followups to reduce UB and unsafe in general, or at least requiring a lifetime for caller-owned memory.

But I think their true strategy is to have AI produce "fixes" like these which will end up infecting the entire codebase: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/pull/30728
