Sure. My point is mostly that the problem is less that your safety guarantees rely on correct implementations (since that applies to all "safe" systems as long as we're running on unsafe hardware) and more that the trusted codebase tends to be quite a bit larger for (current?) Rust compared to Fil-C/formal verification tools. There are efforts to improve the situation there, but it'll take time.

Does make me wonder how easy porting Fil-C to Rust/Zig/etc. would be. IIRC most of the work is done via LLVM pass(es?) and changes to frontends were relatively minor, so it might be an interesting alternative to MIRI/ASan.
