I was told at work to re-write a Rust program in Python

Hi all!

I am doing some work on a library at work, and we needed a helper script that did some analysis. The kind of program you run once and expect it to always work and be there.
So I thought it would be a good idea to try and do it in Rust, a language that I love and know is robust and won't fail me.

However, when my supervisor saw it, I was told to please re-write it in Python because "the next maintainer of this script probably won't know how to program in Rust".

So no hurt feelings or anything, I 100% understand it... But I think it is a shame :(
Specially because with python you can have dependency issues, it is not portable (you need to install the libraries on each machine), it's slower, etc.

Anyhow, I tried pushing Rust at my company! 🤣🤣 I will keep trying, and maybe someday... 🥲
