    I'm surprised the OpenAI Codex team doesn't donate like 10B tokens or something to the Rust team for performance

      Both OpenAI and Anthropic have robust programs for free tokens that you can apply to if you are a significant enough oss maintainer.

      What you suggest may thus be more or less already happening.
