It's high time that people in the Rust community such as you just stop with this act.
The Rust community itself already answered that they find "Rust too difficult to learn or learning will take too much time" as a concern to not use Rust. The community also flagged Rust being too difficult as one of the main reasons they stopped using Rust.
Anyone who has managed to become proficient in C++ is smart enough to be proficient in Rust. The only too difficult part is adapting to the rust way of doing things and some refuse to.

I'm not sure you're paying attention. The people who are saying Rust is too hard are the Rust community itself. They said so in Rusty's annual survey. The ones who participate in it are Rust users who feel strongly about the topic to participate in their governance.
It's Rust users who say Rust is too hard. There is no way around this fact.
