  1. But an OS is not really a stand-alone program. Resources are acquired via the OS, but not necessarily only used by the OS. So resource safety can only be guaranteed for internal states with no outside interfacing. That limits its use quite a bit I would say. Another thing to note is that if an OS plans to use different/future languages, it should not be tightly bound to Rust mechanics either. In that sense, Rust cannot be an improvement for user application and OS playing nice according to Rusts model of doing things.
