I wonder what's really the benefit of using Rust compared to C(++) when you need to write unsafe code either way.

I was concerned about the same thing... Like, one of the biggest pros of Rust is the safety, so I don't particularly want to be writing apps with the unsafe keyword unless I really know what I'm doing (and most following along with this probably aren't expert Rust programmers who know how to write with the "unsafe" keyword safely)
