This is actually bad for Rust. At this point, any technology that that shitbag charlatan chooses deserves a critical second look. To be clear: I’m sure Rust is totally solid but Tesla engineering isn’t the badge of honor some of you fanbois think it is.

Also who the fuck cares? Studying Tesla’s engineering choices is like taking a master class in boneheaded, dangerous, hype-driven engineering decisions. A few years back, Elon decided that redundancy is overrated in the context of Tesla’s full self drive. He got rid of LiDAR and other redundant systems, directly causing the death of quite a few people who trusted his hype with their lives and the lives of others.

Move fast and break things….or as Elon’s motto goes, “move fast, over-promise, under-deliver, and kill people”.

This reminds me that Tesla really isn’t an open-source contributor. They seem to be happy to take, but AFAIK rarely contribute back. With their high levels of vertical integration they could easily make their software OS, but choose not to.
