Swift and Rust were developed at similar times. I think of them more as having similar influences than borrowing from each other.

There’s no reason to invent your own head canon, the influence was openly acknowledged when Swift was new and it continues now that the language is developed out in the open (see Swift Ownership Manifesto)

Similar times and the Rust originator went on to work on Swift after it.
