https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/323 is the oldest currently open tracking issue, as you can see it has 397 comments. And that thread you linked has 171. Basically, tons of people that feel basically every possible way.

I also feel at this point it's basically a wontfix, but that's more because it's both controversial and huge, and arguably not as high of a priority as other things even if it weren't those two things. The reason it gets huge is that you really want to consider all three of {optional, named, variadric} at roughly the same time.

I do think that people are generally more supportive of variadric than optional/named.



Variadic*


Thanks!
