Perhaps the point is that C++ is heavy and if there are alternatives you should use them instead. Just because you invested years getting up to speed doesn't mean everyone else should do the same. I have to use C++ at work occasionally so I'll probably end up having a few years invested in getting to know C++ too. But at this stage the startup cost is considerable and very very present. If I had a choice I wouldn't consider it a good value.
