Quit poking at the openbsd maintainers. Jokes aside (I mean maybe they are one I don't know), it is at least a coherent opinion that inherently complex but critical software infrastructure would ideally be kept as simple and understandable as possible with all the correctness and verification apparatus staying out of the way so you can see what is there to be backdoored. I use rust primarily and like using it, but there are well over a hundred crates just in the front end, and llvm isn't simple. I do miss the days when I could know what each line did.
