  5. I wonder what actor library the author is using with Rust. Given the status of github issues like https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/3573 I thought there weren't any real options.

  6. …the size is part of the type signature and each size would need to be implemented separately. https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/7622 Though the Coord solution you implemented is in my opinion better for a typed language.

  17. Currently, there is no default. This is probably changing back. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/15526 and the associated issues. The TL;DR is this: not having a default type makes you consider which size to choose. This is…

  29. https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/15526 <- there's actually a lot of context for this, and depending on how the RFC shakes out, much of this will go away.

  30. This is good criticism. If you have time, might you consider creating an issue? https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues Steve reads all of the ones regarding documentation, and most likely would find it valuable.
