Even through it has some flaws, e.g. it's not fully memory safe (there are some programming languages that are even safer, like Ada)?

On a superficial level it's a lot nicer than Ada for people who didn't learn to program on Pascal. Rust's real flaws don't show up until you need to do large refractors and change your application's memory model.
