Seems that just rewriting stuff in 'memory safe' Rust does not change anything when it comes to security.

That is why rewriting stuff just for the sake of rewriting it is so brain fucking dead ...

Want to try #smolBSD in no time without building, fetching, or even reading the doc?
$ curl -fsSL -o- smolbsd.org/sh|sh
No root needed, only qemu. It should work on Linux amd64, arm64, and macOS.
This will fire up a NetBSD rescue image with minimal tools!
