I have never seen that on the table to be honest, certainly not on implementation language topics. There was some uncertainty with Java and licencing that I remember, but it is mostly about the issue on how to acquire talent.

People tend to be careful with Rust because it is a relatively young language. Many medium sized business don't have much capacity to experiment but would still try it without too much convincing.

Far more relevant it access to professionals that have experience with the language. That is something that grows very slowly. The JS community is pretty "expressive", but it is still a popular choice because you find a lot of people with experience here. My boss would expect all these nerds to behave badly anyway. I doubt he will ever change his opinion but the next generation might.
