What Hacker News says?

  1. The article skips directly from #4 to #6, so I'll nominate something for #5: ranges should not be iterators. Instead they should impl IntoIterator and the iterators should be separate types. That way ranges can impl Copy without any issues. https://kaylynn.gay/blog/post/rust_ranges_and_suffering
