It seems to me that C++ has always been a language where you really need to understand each statement you use and its implications. Otherwise you can quickly get in trouble.
So I think C++ should either be close to a full time job where you have to learn all the details or you probably shouldn't do it.

And this is why people who say that Rust is too difficult and complicated to ever get traction have no idea what "difficult and complicated" even means in this part of our industry. The whole point of projects like Rust is to make these things a lot simpler and easier to get correct, and thus to empower everyone to write better code.
