I'm not a Rust programmer, but I've released a lot of code under MIT in the past and my reason for picking it was because it was so simple and flexible when it comes to reusing it with code under other licenses.
I recall once, years ago, a user coming to me quite angry about how I was releasing code under a license that permitted corporations to "steal" it. Just for him I dual-licensed that particular bit of code under MIT and GPL. He never responded so I guess that satisfied him? Whatever, I'm just happy he went away.
