🎯 Answer: The original Rust compiler from 2010 was written in OCaml! 🐫

OCaml was chosen for its strong type system and pattern matching features. This "bootstrap" compiler was used to create the first self-hosting Rust compiler.

Real example:
1. Pre-install cargo on runner for Rust builds
2. Test with `cargo version` - works!
3. Run GitHub Action with `cargo build`
4. 😱 Error: `cargo: command not found`
