You claimed much more than that.

See your statement: "Not so with with the first two! The mental models involved in reasoning about a piece of code require much more cognition on the part of the programmer.".

Your whole comment is about favoring Rust over those two because Rust is your beloved language.

Additionally, it is not up to me to teach you Forth nor Common Lisp.

Finally, you should read your own comment where you replace Rust with Common Lisp, for example, and Forth and Common Lisp with Rust. You may see what I was referring to.

In fact, let me do it for you:

> Rust is demanding, but they demand different things of the novice programmer than Common Lisp. The latter's baroque syntax is not provably good or necessary, but I'd call it the other end of a compromise for safety and expressiveness. And once you learn it, you've learned much of the language by default.

> Not so much with Rust! The mental models involved in reasoning about a piece of code require much more cognition on the part of the programmer.

See it yet?
