Dunno what motivated them internally, but the bluetooth vulns that made news in Feb 2020 would have been prevented by safe Rust. See my comment from back then: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22265572

According to dtolnay, there are only 4 lines of unsafe rust in the Rust component. It's a bit small though at the current moment in time, with 4 thousand lines. Most of the code is still C++. Note that it's "with Rust" in the headline, not "in Rust".
