This is why Go and Rust are coming into their own. C++ is a clusterf*ck of complicated design decisions (note, I didn't say bad, just complicated). It's certainly a powerful language for systems development but one has to wonder if it needs to be. Anytime I see a language overdo it on the features, my sense is that they need to step back and survey the landscape of developers before they decide to add more stuff.
