That's a good point. To restate and expand:

- We don't have "C++ peers" because C++ expertise is an implicit
prerequisite for being a peer in a module containing C++ code.

- We don't have "JS peers" because JS expertise is an implicit prerequisite
for being a peer in a module containing JS code.

- Ditto for other languages (e.g. Python for build system modules).

Rust is currently special because it's so new, but eventually it'll be like
the others:

- We won't have "Rust peers" because Rust expertise will be an implicit
prerequisite for being a peer in a module containing Rust code.

In other words, this list of people will become less necessary over time,
which is not what you'd expect for a Mozilla module. So I will not make
this a module and just put it on the Oxidation wiki page.

Thank you to all those who responded.
