Yeah totally, completely agree. One of the things C and Modern idiomatic C++ (using C++11 on) have in common is some part of the culture surrounding them having a tolerance for, if not liking of, macho arrogance. "If you got burned it's purely because you're stupid and lazy which I am not, ha ha." This kind of vibe. Not everywhere by any means, but it exists and it's destructive to sensible analysis and the writing of good quality software, while alienating some talent from the pool of potential colleagues. I strongly dislike it.
