Has anyone written a good "Rust haters' handbook"? A centralized list of reasonable (if over the top) grievances with the language?

I love Rust, but I do have my own list of grievances… trying to hold off spamming them here though! 😅 Many of them I can forgive, given the constraints Rust has faced over its development, but they give me enough itches to contemplate playing with my own ideas!

You could drop it in a hackmd and link to it

It's pretty rough, pretty personal, sometimes pretty superficial/subjective, and I'm sure I've left some stuff out, but these are the things that have frustrated me with Rust over the years:
Of these I’m optimistic that the trait objects situation will be fixed eventually. It’s sitting in a place where improvements in all the areas you mention should be backwards compatible.
