Hi community,
I'm a C++ developer for 25yrs now. Started learning Rust 2 weeks ago and I'm already stumbling over the confusing "hm let us invent the wheel again" standard library and the custom crates, where others try to do it a bit different, so that it creates maximum overhead, if you simply want to exchange your underlying container.
I would like to know, what is your opinion about this?

Are there other developers who would like to have and/or implement such containers like it is done in STL?
