I haven't the slightest clue how anyone would even remotely hope to review this. I guess by just using even more AI? Or maybe by throwing some über hardcore lint pass onto it? It really seems like more an exercise in risk assessment than code review.
$ grep --exclude-dir=.git -r 'unsafe {' | wc -l

Trying to eliminate all unsafe as part of the rewrite, whether done by human or LLM, would be making too big of a change in the process of rewriting.
God forbid the already unreviewable -710kloc/+1mloc change get any bigger!
But I suppose if you are already using LLMs it's more reasonable to try and go from Zig straight to Rust with no/minimal unsafe.
