alt Hacker NewsI haven’t seen any blog on the topic but I fully believe in the age of coding agents and LLM backward compatibility is a bit less important than it has been in the past and should be relaxed in some cases to allow language to move faster.

I get your point but disagree strongly. One topic that's been on my mind a lot is durability. The culture of LLMs is that everything is transitory. Why bother keeping a vibe coded codebase around for more than a few weeks, when the next big model iteration will be able to vibe code it better?
By contrast, free software in general, and Rust very much in particular, has cultural norms that things should last a while, rather than immediately being thrown away. I think that's worth preserving.
