A RewriteInRustBench would be unironically useful at this point since all the main agents can write it reasonably well despite its relative scarcity in the input data.

I wouldn't be surprised if we're already at the point of more LLM-written Rust than hand-written. Models training off models

Have each agent rewrite openssl in $lang and call it the RollYourOwnCrypto bench.

All the main agents can write Jai code reasonably well despite being even more scarce in input data!
