Is there a language other than rust that is memory safe? I'm using C++ for good reason, and while rust does have some things I find intriguing, those who have experimented where I work have returned to modern c++ (I have not been able to figure out why). What other alternatives do I have that compile to fast code, have a wealth of libraries, and interoperate well with my existing C++?

You mean other than most of them? Gotta say this is the first time I've seen someone forget that garbage collection even exists.
