I heartily wish that you continue learning Rust, another significant contribution to open source languages. What has been already commented, things such as borrow/checker are humps you work through and it will work out for you eventually. The other challenges are some of your enterprise 3rd party integrations with the outside world, some of which may again demand your time if they are still in beta, etc.

Also, the organization has no desire to invest in training or experimenting. The project is funded by the "business" and they want to see a business result in return for their money ... so you basically you sneak in a bit of time as you try/test something new. Nim won out by somehow getting a team with python expertise learn and deploy their product fast enough.

just keep at it, eventually you run into data structures hard to represent with a borrow checker and it will slow you down, at least at first
