Fair fair. To be honest, I think in a lot of these cases there are good helper crates/macros; for this I would now probably use recap: https://docs.rs/recap/0.1.1/recap/
The really horrendous scenario was when I was trying to navigate pest iterators for parsing according to a grammar.
Interesting! Can you help me understand why this doesn't work for me?
error[E0599]: no method named `parse` found for enum `Option<regex::Match<'_>>` in the current scope

I think you need .name("min")?.as_str() to access the underlying text of the match object (after making sure it is a valid match with the ?), which can then be parsed. The regex Match object itself does not have a parse method that I can see.
I don't know what the structure Input looks like but I played around with your code and it seems to work with as_str()
