I have noticed that Cursor often adds type annotations, especially in `let` statements, even when they are not needed. This typically occurs with generics, which sadly cannot be linted by [clippy::redundant_type_annotations](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#redundant_type_annotations), so I have instead decided to add a Cursor rule to hopefully prevent this behavior going forward
