Before the stories had even been written, the uutils was made 50% faster than GNU. Now we have an actual difference in behaviour. But it is again fixed before the stories could even go out. The anti-Rust crew is really trying to celebrate hear but it seems like uutils is proving them wrong so far. We will see what happens in production I suppose.
