Average Rust code:
This is on the level of the esolang I made at 8 y/o, with random characters denoting random actions everywhere, at random positions.
It's incredibly disingenuous to call this average Rust code and further erodes your credibility. I may as well point to hundreds of lines of preprocessor macros in a C++ header and call it average C++ code.
This is not what an average Rust developer is writing 99% of the time. If someone on my team submitted a PR with an implementation of
sumthat usesmacro_rules!I would almost certainly reject it.
