It is not about formal education itself though. Mostly 'bootcamp webshit' meme is - about those developers who don't know things like algorithm complexity or memory related stuff, working at a top level of a multi-layer stack leading to inefficient/bad code.
The common consensus is it is pretty important for every developer to know some low level programming (C, asm) and algorithms/Data Structures stuff. Not so much about other things covered in standard CS curriculum.
> "% of developers who are developing with the language or technology and have expressed interest in continuing to develop with it"
This is the metric for most loved language. So if 15 developers responded that they use rust, and all 15 have interest in continuing with it, then its score is 100%.
This is not such a great metric of rust's success IMO. you can't try to push a well designed systems language into applications space and expect it to win everywhere.
The actual problem is, there is no mature language with sufficient compile time guarantees for applications space. Go which is somehow treated as rust's competitor, is nowhere near that in terms of expressiveness or compile time checking. You would actually want generics, nullable types, exceptions, and streams in an applications language.

I am an Indian and to be honest, the hierarchical culture is horrible. People misattribute it to caste system but it is much much more than that. We aren't actually expected to straightforwardly say the professor / senior / elders are wrong.
I am studying in an "engineering" "college" of India. ("top" college by Indian norms, but not IIT[1]). And I totally understand this.
The mentality of 'gaming the system' is deep rooted in education system here, probably because education is so rote-oriented, mechanical and namesake.
[1] I would have difficulty believing current generation of IIT students would be any good either. These days the entrance process for IITs has become pretty game-able and people with money and time do that.
