> Why not set a bounty to improve Prettier instead of building a competing project just to increase the motivation to improve Prettier?

That's a good question. But a new, Rust (or whatever is fast) version of prettier is effectively Prettier. If it has the same config, switches, and defaults, it's Prettier.

The value of prettier is that it's a standard most of JS/TS agrees on, saving discussions for more important topics. The code that gets us there is a side effect.
