Parent article: APT Rust requirement raises questions
With Swift approach (roughly: make dyn Trait as capable as impl Trait at the cost of implementation speed) there would be no material difference between ABI stability checks and API stability checks.
Sure, it would be a bit work to provide stable ABI and most crates wouldn't bother, but if someone want to create a “Rust platform” (similarly to how iOS and macOS are “Swift platforms”) then it's perfectly doable if costly.
