Dave Herman’s contributions to Rust
Practically, I prefer let and var because of autocompletion. Type one letter then tab. Of course, if I could dictate I might prefer something else.
I think of it as being more math like rather than PhD.
Nothing wrong with borrowing from math.

From the perspective of "language designers influencing programmers", the difficulty of auto-completing to `let mut` could be seen as something positive.

A good IDE will let you type "mu", and autocomplete with "let mu", cycling on tab will give you more options.
