In a way I'm sad that things like dependent types or higher-order types might not make it in. But on the other hand: Rust doesn't need to be the only language to exist. Stability is a feature too. Having a continually increasing set of language features makes this hard to reach.

Idk, I've not had great experiences in the past with languages that take pride in being feature complete, as if PL research isn't still ongoing.

I think it's possible for a language to acknowledge PL research keeps going on, but still pull the breaks a bit on adding new proposals. I'm more angling this as: "it's probably healthy to implement the backlog, and take a break to reflect on what we have before adding more".
