You really have to compare articles like this, which are just a bunch of hand waving around the author's biases, against articles with more concrete statements like the Android team finding a 1000x reduction in memory vulnerabilities compared to C/C++. Thanks for your opinion but I'm going to weigh the people who actually use the language more than you.

Hard disagree.

For my reality of developing for smaller projects than Android, I will absolutely weight Android team's opinion less than the opinion of smaller projects.

Trying to mimic FAANG engineering practices is a fools endeavour that ranges between naiveness at best and CV padding at worst.

FAANG engineeers can't code for shit, but the one thing they did get right was when they jumped on the Rust bandwagon

The android team wasn't comparing like to like, though people seem to gotten the impression they were.
