I've always found it fascinating how frequently I've seen the complaint about Go re: boilerplate and unnecessary toil, but in previous statements Rust was uttered with an uncritical breath. I agree with the complaint about Go, but I have the same problem with Rust. LLMs have made Rust much more joyful for me to write, and I am sure much of this is obviously subjective.

I do like automating all the endless `Result<T, E>` plumbing, `?` operator chains, custom error enums, and `From` conversions. Manual trait impls for simple wrappers like `Deref`, `AsRef`, `Display`, etc. 90% of this is structural too, so it feels like busy work. You know exactly what to write, but the compiler can't/won’t do it for you. The LLM fills that gap pretty well a significant percentage of the time.

But to your original point, the LLM is very good at autocompleting this type of code zero-shot. I just don't think it speaks ill of Rust as a consequence.
