Unnecessary optimization Memes

Behold, the classic Flex Tape demonstration! The top panel shows a perfectly functional Python library doing exactly what it's supposed to do—nothing extraordinary, just reliable code that works. But then some memory-safety zealot barges in with "REWROTE IT IN RUST" and slaps that sticker on like it's going to fix a problem that didn't exist. It's the programming equivalent of using a sledgehammer to hang a picture frame. Sure, Rust prevents memory leaks and thread safety issues, but rewriting a perfectly functional Python library just to flex your systems programming muscles? That's peak "I use Arch btw" energy right there.
