Rust seems to handle it ok. Features can spend a long time being nightly-only gated behind feature flags, while nevertheless seeing real world usage from people willing to brave the risk and churn.

But Python has a very different release schedule. Rust's nightly releases nightly and stable every six weeks, while Python only releases once a year. I don't think it could adopt the same model.
