The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Does Rust not need extra linting and sanitizing tools like C++?
If you’re writing unsafe Rust, you might consider cargo miri and Rudra as additional static analyzers which can find bugs rustc won’t

Open Rust-related systems research problems suitable for PhD?
In my opinion, much of Rust-specific PhD research likely to be publishable and/or high impact either falls into verification (e.g Prusti, Cruesot) or bug-finding (e.g. Rudra, SyRust). Ralf Jung and his collaborators have done exceptional work in the verification space.

Scylla – Real-Time Big Data Database
Not sure proves your point, but maybe doesn't disprove your point strongly enough. I am not qualified to argue from experience about how Rust is ideally suited in the ways you think it is not. But from everything I have seen, it can do a whole lot of what C++ is also good at. Rust safety is not all or nothing and a codebase could definitely prioritize ergonomics over correctness.
Two things that I saw in the last couple weeks that might start to sway you.

Project "safe transmute"
-
[Media] This is kinda cool
In this case a simple From implementation or anything like that won't be different, even performance wise. For more complex cases there's project-safe-transmute, but that will still require you to annotate your structs in such a way that their layouts will be guaranteed to be compatible, which you're not currently doing.

Turning a slice of structs into a slice of floats without copying?
You might also be interested in the project safe transmute, which might bring safe transmutes like these to stdlib in the future.

Rudra: Rust Memory Safety & Undefined Behavior Detection
One of the biggest notable examples is unsafe transmutes that could be safe. In fact there's a safe transmute working group trying to cover these cases. Just to give an example, if you have a #[repr(transparent)] newtype, it could be possible to safely transmute from a reference of an inner type to the type it wraps (for e.g. 1-tuple or 1-field structs), but doing that now presently requires unsafe.

Jokes aside, there is actually a work on going for making a subset of transmutes safe: https://github.com/rust-lang/project-safe-transmute
