Rust has this notion of a borrow checker and so the borrow checker essentially is going to perform what maybe you can consider as some sort of basic formal formal verification. It's basically going to validate that when you have a reference to a program you're not using that reference in let's say an improper way. In ZK at least you can still end up with normal bugs that you would otherwise because at least right now your rust is just the language that you're using to build the circuit itself.
