"but the backed might take a long time" is a question, not a statement,.and even when that's true, the important question is "what do *all* users pay for this filigree?"

I've been taking shit from JS thinkfluencers and their lackies for most of a decade for pointing out that "CSS-in-JS" (as practiced in the React community hotbox of CPU throughput hallucinations) is, for lack of a better phrase, bullshit.

What you should learn from that same group eventually killing the nonsense softly isn't that they are good or right, it's that they simply don't know what they're talking about at *any* level of the system.

#Rustlang 1.67 added extra optimizations of struct layouts. This might break code that relied on the "don't rely on this" layout of Rust structs without `#[repr(C)]`.

If you want to ensure your code doesn't rely on undocumented struct layout, there's an nightly flag for that: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/106764

RUSTFLAGS="-Z randomize-layout" cargo +nightly test
