Except that most devs don’t understand what their C++ code actually does at runtime and many try to be too clever and use too many features. I have seen spectacular failures regarding memory usage and copies, static initializers, even exceptions (just design your APIs without them!) C++ code bases may have less buffer overflows and off-by-one errors but I don’t trust them unless they come with an extensive safety-net in the form of unit-tests with good coverage.
