    Is that really such a bad thing though?

      Yes. Too much for people to learn, so they make mistakes. I’ve seen compilers get confused with C++. Though it was MS’s…

      If a language isn’t tight, it should at least be safe. C++ is neither. You can do anything with it, but I don’t think it’s ever really a good tool for a particular job.
