Absolutely, that's a much better way to put it. But it's a situation that (I'd wager) many more developers are in, as opposed to already knowing an older dialect of C or C++. Given the growth the field is still undergoing, and the number of devs who never need to learn one of "the classics," I don't think it's bad to point out that there are good alternatives to C++ that are easier for someone versed in managed languages to pick up if they need some of C++'s strengths.

API and functionality can be decoupled, but you will still need to have someone available to understand the path from A to Z
