I personally have no issue with it. Because Rust's type inference is so good, you don't generally even have to specify generic type parameters for method calls. It is more verbose and perhaps you could say less elegant, but I think it better expresses the concept.

The talk at rubyconf mentioned that `string.scan` was 100% faster due to specialized string implementations in the Rust backend. I wonder if there are any performance gains from the actual runtime rather than from std optimizations?
That is misleading, in my opinion. "100% faster" implies that runtime for a given workload is reduced by 100%, taking zero time. I think what you mean to say is either that it's 50% faster or that throughput is increased by 100%.
