Following up on adrusi's comment because max comment depth is reached: But you KNOW those features. You know that you shouldn't use overloading because of perf reason A, or that templates are bad for reason B (in the case of your project). However, if you saw those two features in code, you'd know how to interpret it, how they work, etc. The typical C++ knowledge is not just C. The OP to which I replied to implied that counter() (or any of the other features that are part of the standard) isn't typical CSS knowledge. Well then the typical CSS knowledge is terrible and should be fixed, because they're not exactly obscure functions, and CSS isn't exactly a huge monstrosity like C++ is.
