that don’t exist in Rust
That’s because serious projects basically don’t exist in Rust. Yet, probably, Rust seem to be a good language that people like, so those are to follow, but for now they’re rare.
Or don’t, if we discover that Rust has some other issue that only happens when the project grows old enough.
Personally, I’m sticking to the devil I know, the one that has almost 60 years of accumulated knowledge and best practices.

Rustls can already replace OpenSSL, but maybe that’s not serious enough for you. Sure, the ring backend embeds assembly for the crypto operations, but that’s the point: You can have a safe interface for interacting with potentially unsafe code. Do all of the memory allocation and string manipulation stuff in Rust and call out to crypto in assembly
