Comment on Making Julia as Fast as C++ (2019)parent

Personally I never struggled. You can employ interfaces and maintain them judiciously.

But interfaces are informal. Not using a monorepo say makes it harder to be sure if your broke downstream or not (via downstream’s unit tests).

But freedom from Rust’s orphan rule etc means you can decompose large code into fragments easily, while getting almost Zig-style specialisation yet the ease of use of python (for consumers). I would say this takes a fair bit of skill to wield safely/in a maintainable fashion though, and many packages (including my own) are not extremely mature.
