Also, there is often a trade-off between accuracy and education. For example, when I correct my toddler that the Sun is actually not moving, but we are rotating. That's wrong, the Sun is moving, but arguably less wrong than his impression. (I once tried to give him the full explanation, but halfway through he ran away to play with his trains.)
Not that readers of the Rust book are toddlers, but the principle generalizes in my experience.
