Rust's derive macro often implies inline

Original: Rust's derive often implies inline

A new write-up explains that Rust's #[derive] attribute often carries an implicit #[inline] effect, meaning derived trait implementations can be inlined across crate boundaries more readily than developers expect. The piece walks through how this affects codegen and compile behavior. Rust developers are weighing in on whether this implicit behavior is well documented and what it means for binary size and performance.

Why now: It reveals a subtle, under-documented Rust compiler behavior that surprised many developers.
