I really prefer rust's approach. The function signature is the contract. It makes it much easier to debug compared to overly generic pure functional code or c++ templates where everything is auto and perfect forwarded.

The only time in rust where this isn't true is with async functions. That's because the compiler adds a ton of sugar to make it easier to write.
