I think you’ve misidentified the reason this stuff is harder in Rust and it has nothing to do with “true OOP” if by that you mean class based inheritance. The primary challenge is mapping how GUIs are traditionally mutated onto Rust semantics. Even then, efforts like Slint show it’s eminently feasible so I’m not sure your argument holds.
It’s important to remember that c++ has a 30 year head start on Rust, especially at a crucial growth part of computing. Thats why it tops the TIOBE index. But I fully expect it to go the way of COBAL sooner rather than later where most new development does not use c++.
