I think this specifically is overstated. There's a lot of folks successfully using Rust without cargo. It's some extra work, but it's typically easier than packaging stuff for nixpkgs. The rust/cargo folks have done a good job of making this friendly to automation.

Notably, it is much easier to port 99.9% of Rust crates to a new build system than to do the same for your average C/C++ project.
