I used both nim (back when it was still nimrod) and rust for a while, before eventually settling on rust. I tried to give nim a chance, and was told that "they will grow on you" ("they" being the things you mentioned that were "unique decisions instead of what you're used to from other languages"). They never did, and though I got used to avoiding the problems I initially had with them, the language just never "felt good" to me.
