Types are puzzles. A good Rustacean will make sure that the pieces fit to make the picture.
That's why in crates where I need to make sure certain functions are called in order, I use a Ticket<T>, where one function returns a Ticket<Func1Done> with the output and the other has to consume it as an input.
The typestate pattern is a specialization of making only valid states representable
That's fair but then you have to make your args a struct for this bespoke purpose; an anti pattern.
Also, many other functions can depend on the ticket from func_1. So making the ticket separate and generic on the process is the right (imo) solution here.
That sounds like a Wrapper<Func1Payload>, not a Ticket<Func1Call> that will become an extra parameter of Func2 whose only purpose is to prove to Func2 that you called Func1.
I use Typestates and Newtypes extensively. The metric that shows Typestate and Newtypes are beneficial is: How many method calls or parameters can be called / used that compile but are not valid use cases. You want to minimise this number. I love having a type state where I can only make 1 or 2 method calls because the state enforces there are only a few parsing / validation / transition methods available. And there is only one valid way to supply the parameters, I cannot use the strings in the wrong location. I only wish we had named parameters like ObjC.
