A computer nerd that hasn't their identity in the world tied up with specific technologies,thus no chains preventing from looking to both sides, and doesn't shy away from critics.

If that makes me a shill for whatever technologies I happen to favour, so be it, people that think name calling changes anything should have their priorities on society revisited.

You're kind of inferring the inverse argument to what I pointed out. I believe in healthy discussion and along with the original creator of Rust I agree that there are plenty of things Rust didn't solve [1]. Nor do I believe that Rust is the perfect tool for all tasks. It's a good tool for a significant chunk of problems. That's where I stand.

That said, equating people arguing in bad faith to any form of disagreement. Sorry here we disagree.
