As much as I enjoyed Swift, one can only wonder what the world would look like if they had gone with Rust as their default language instead.
Modern Swift borrows a lot from Rust! And it also has its own benefits, both ergonomic and also supporting eg generic in dynamic libraries
I'm surprised the code has visible LLM smells. Though, I shouldn't be surprised. I hope the important bits are still human-controlled (and the same for Apple's many operating systems that absolutely deserve to remain stable and understood).
From what I got Apple is using claude code A LOT internally

Swift and Rust were developed at similar times. I think of them more as having similar influences than borrowing from each other.

Similar times and the Rust originator went on to work on Swift after it.
During the State of Platform keynote, on the subject of Swift adoption across macOS, several examples were given, not only TrueType engine. RIS is happening across all OS levels, if the keynote is to be believed.
