I don't think anyone doing bare-metal Rust will use libgreen/libnative/libstd so it doesn't really matter. The underlying features like native I/O will end up being exposed without the "runtime". |

If someone just need something "sense of humor" here, I suggest to replace these quotes with a very simple Emoticon or Emoji text, such as |
