If you translate an existing project into Rust, it is a derivative work and should retain the original license.
If the rewritten project gets more successful than the original (perhaps due to corporate promotion), you have morally stolen the work of the original authors.
If you write a project from scratch without looking, this of course does not apply. But I doubt that is how Rust rewrites actually happen, the temptation is too great.
