Sounds like he is suffering from bias of the problem domain he is working on right now.

  Which, to be fair, is also an apt description of defenders of C and C++ (I consider myself in that category). We are all susceptible to the biases of niches we have worked in and what we have seen working well in those niches. C and C++ can be made to shine in some ways that I get the strong impression many people who happen to not have the same experiences will never appreciate, and perhaps that's not even a bad thing, maybe that just is.

  But that problem domain is dominated by the need for speed -- which is exactly where C and C++ are supposed to have a competitive advantage.
