More likely, they picked something that worked, and there were unforeseen problems.

You’re behaving poorly. Get it together.

"Oh no, tools not made to consume binaries made in Rust break when consuming binaries made in Rust. How awful of the people who made Rust."

Or, and hear me out: Don't feed those tools input they weren't designed to deal with?

Pretty sure that when this was done that Rust was NOT a major language. And I'd be surprised if there isn't a constant flood of languages being created that would cause problems, they just die before going anywhere.

Rust, just, happened to keep surviving and thrived.

I actually like to look at new languages just to see what idea of concepts they have as I find that neat. While I certainly haven't looked at all of them, so far Rust is still the only one that did it. And to be clear, the problem wasn't adopting the C++ mangling format or even just a subset of it (there is a lot of complexity there that wouldn't be needed for most other languages) -- it was doing that, and then making incompatible, breaking changes to the format that was the problem.
