Sherlock Holmes liked to say "When you have eliminated the impossible whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth".

The same is true for programming languages. When you have eliminated all the others for their fatal flaws, only Rust remains, so it's not "just a tool", it's the best tool (or less worse, depending on how you like the syntax).

This is why I get turned off hearing about Rust (and I use it from time to time). You can say Rust is good without saying other languages are bad.

Luckily software development is not a static crime to be solved.

It's an evergreen field to be researched forever. With languages coming and going. ;)
