If that's so trivial to trigger, people would be doing so everywhere. Have you seen it in the wild or heard of anyone doing so?

If someone did, why would I hear of it?

So you're just spouting some cooked up theory. Not a practical scenario.

No, I'm saying that when people run into strange bugs, sometimes they put together an issue (like the person behind cve-rs), and sometimes they quietly work around it because they're busy.

Seeing as I don't often trawl through issues on the language git, neither really involve notifying me specifically.

My lack of an anecdote does not equate to anecdotal evidence of no issue, just that I haven't met every rust developer.
