Nope that doesn't happen. It's not compiled into your binary if it's a dev or build dependency. Cargo may have downloaded the crate source according to the lockfile and that's it, it shouldn't build anything unneeded.

Makes me wonder why zig announced the strict LLM rule recently. I'm afraid one reason could be that zig doesn't want to accept code from the bun fork in the first place (because of LLM usage, deviation and other reasons)

Both that, and there's an internal list that allows only Apple's (plus a few makers' like Logitech and Keychron) keyboard to _send_ the modifier keycode. Others are simply ignored. Sorry enthusiasts, Apple don't want to favor you.
