Who wouldn't. But let's not pretend that stackage and crates.io are covering the same functionality space.

As just one example: there are no OCaml or Haskell packages for natively reading or writing parquet files. There are at least 2 such packages for Rust.

Likewise, despite crates.io, Rust is missing lots of stuff I miss from Java, C# and C++.

Plenty of stuff isn't there yet.
