Is it Anthropic showing off well their LLMs work? Was it too difficult to find Zig devs so Bun swapped to Rust? Did Jarred read one too many memes about "rewriting in rust" and took it at face value??

I would imagine that there will be bugs migrating all at once, performance will probably be close to the same, and the maintainers will need to context shift from Zig to Rust. A very confusing decision for sure.
