The comparisons in this discussion with Python and Typescript are equally silly too because they’re not even strictly typed languages.
I guess some people just want to feel like their preferences are superior and discussions like these allow them to cherry pick favourable metrics which validate their opinions.

There's no real battle, except for language zealots.
Go gets a ton of things right for easy programming, and presents a super readable language with concurrency as a forethought.
Rust take a more conservative approach with a focus on correctness, and is the more performant language typically, for when you need it.
I don't at all see them filling the same niche, so I can't understand why this argument comes up so often.
I completely agree.
