Much less of a big deal for most applications. For the applications that need it in some areas, use PyO3 to write a module in Rust. Of course, Python's not going to be the perfect tool for every job, and that's okay.
Nooo if a proframming language is not the best choice for every job it is worthless and all the programmers using it are heathens!
Except of course for the language i prefer because i am one of the few to not go insane doing application xy in it.
