C++/Rust interop, opportunity or threat?

https://m.slashdot.org/story/435571

Hello C++ folks, i read this article about interoperability of those languages and wonder what is your opinion about interoperability initiatives.

Do you think it's a good opportunity to acquire Rust libraries and promote use of Cpp ones to a larger audience?

Or instead you think it's a crab conspiracy to promote RIIR (Rewrite It In Rust) strategy?

Thanks in advance

tf is with your title?

...anyway, rust and c++ are the closest major languages in terms of domain and overarching goals, so it only makes sense to make interop as seamless as possible
