I think it's great languages borrow ideas from others. Rust didn't invent anything (seriously) but took good parts from many existing languages and refined them into a consistent whole. I'm certainly happy to see the direction Python is headed (type hints) or PHP (enums). It's not necessarily related to Rust, but i believe many people from different backgrounds finding interest in Rust (not just for the borrow checker) certainly helps other languages advance.
