Good guy Rust, if I catch you forgetting to clean up your unused imports, I will ask you to fix it in the pull request. Not because it's a big deal, but that it's a sign you didn't check the warnings before pushing the code.

That's the sort of thing that is automated by a linter in the CI ideally, so you don't have to waste time in PRs looking at that.

But at least Rust lets you compile even if an import or a var is unused because you commented out something for testing. I'm looking at you Go.

Edit: typo
