I would argue (minor caveats) that StatiCompiler + StaticTools are “stable enough” for some things in production, see [this thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/successful-static-compilation-of-julia-code-for-use-in-production/79318). They will get even better over time, but they’re usable right now.

And answering the question, Rust/C++ and other languages have other sets of features _and_ target objectives, like interfaces for Rust and C++, memory safety for Rust, and the case that both languages are more guided to systems programming. Those features _do_ make them more useful for some task, so Julia will not replace them on what they do well. 🙂
