I expected someone to write a rust-based scripting language which tightly integrated with rust itself.
In reality, it seems like the python developers and toolchain are embracing rust enough to reduce the benefits to a new alternative.

There are a number of efforts along these lines, the most interesting is probably Samsara https://github.com/chc4/samsara https://redvice.org/2023/samsara-garbage-collector/ which implements a concurrent, thread-safe GC with no global "stop the world" phase.

This comment is misleading &| misinformed.
Sum types are built-in [1] for formal parameters. `nil` is only for `ref|ptr` types. In much code you can just use stack allocated value types and there is neither GC concern nor nil concern, but there is also a mode to help: https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/manual_experimental_strictnot...
Nim has an easy-ish to use Lisp-like syntax macro system where you just receive & process an AST. So, to do the rest you can make libraries adding the feature without relying upon upstream compiler: such as https://github.com/beef331/sumtypes for variables with sum types or pattern matching libs like https://andreaferretti.github.io/patty/ | https://github.com/alehander92/gara.

20 milliseconds? On my 7 year old Linux box, this little Nim program https://github.com/c-blake/bu/blob/main/wsz.nim runs to completion in 275 microseconds when fully statically linked with musl libc on Linux. That's with a stripped environment (with `env -i`). It takes more like 318 microseconds with my usual 54 environment variables. The program only does about 17 system calls, though.
Additionally, https://github.com/c-blake/cligen makes decent CLI tools a real breeze. If you like some of Go's qualities but the language seems too limited, you might like Nim: https://nim-lang.org. I generally find getting good performance much less of a challenge with Nim, but Nim is undeniably less well known with a smaller ecosystem and less corporate backing.

Nim
Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).

nitro
Experimental OOP language that compiled to native code with non-fragile and stable ABI (by ultimaweapon)
Seems like we are looking for the same thing so I invent a new language to fit my need: https://github.com/ultimaweapon/nitro
