At this point, the only thing I still haven't found concrete information on is function inspection in Swift and Rust, which should be a mark against the languages if it's not easily Googlable.
For Objective-C it's possible to use the Objective-C runtime functions to access some of this information. Based on a method you can access the types of the arguments and the return type. Although this data is represented as strings, in a semi mangled format. All this should be accessible in Swift as well but will only (I assume) work for Swift methods that can be called from Objective-C. "Native" Swift methods support other features that are not accessible in Objective-C, like generics.
