The more you know an a C++ programmer, the more you're aware of all the things that can bite you and all the things you need to do to make sure you don't get bitten. Writing code within that cognitive envelope is a tax that's often underestimated. After spending some time out of that world, I find it amazingly tedious to get back into it. If you're not aware of many of the pitfalls, you might not even be aware of the envelope you should be aware of.
