Is Rust going to become a language for scientific computing and data analysis anytime soon?

Hello! I've been interested in Rust for a year or so now, and have attempted to transition to it last Summer in a last-ditch effort NOT to learn C++, which I found unpleasant to use. Rust is very cool though! Anyway, given my interest in pursuing a scientific career, I was interested in trying to use Rust for scientific computing and data analysis instead of say Python or Fortran. What is great about Rust is that I can run Python code through PyO3 (https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3)! So, do you think that is possible or efficient to do or is it a complete waste of time?

This is the repo if you want to take a look, I'd like to share more detailed evaluation data (as we have lots) but we are in currently in the works to publish this as an article
