I’m not a rust programmer, can anyone with experience in systems programming explain a legitimate use case for the uutils other than weakening the GPL? The auther even admits that several coreutils are still GNU in 26.04 which begs one to ask “why the rewrite?”
I was very confused by this sentence until I realized it’s a programming thingy.

what’s your definition of a system’s language?
Wait, what? How? It compiles down to bare metal without a runtime. People write OSes and program microcontrollers with it. For any arbitrary C program, it’s possible to write Rust code such that it compiles down to the same bytecode. Am I missing something?
Guess i’ve a different understanding of systems language.
Wait, I’m so confused, what’s your definition of a systems language?
What does it mean to you then?
