Rust doesn't stop you to divide by 0, I think... so crashes are still possible.
That's true about the (mostly) safe crashes as I've seen it described by the creator. Though, Rust isn't about avoiding crashes. Rust is mainly about avoiding common security and usage pitfalls in C++ while providing built in concurrency.

Rust being a New Language, unlike Gecko which is pretty solid
Its not really about the language being new(its based on C++ after all). Its just the nature of bleeding edge software. Crashes WILL happen. They happened before Rust, they will happen after Rust.
