I'm ignorant, what's the benefit of it?

  Certain features of the C++ language and its library should help simplify coding, improve code reuse, and avoid bugs. Here's a blog post that provides more context: https://petereisentraut.blogspot.com/2013/05/moving-to-c.html https://petereisentraut.blogspot.com/2013/05/moving-to-c.htm...

    The problem is that the current set of portability targets (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/supported-platforms.html https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/supported-platf...) doesn't support a lot of common ground WRT c++ support. Otherwise I (and some others involved in the project) would have started to gently push in that direction.
