Well, the C++ coding guidelines project is focused in particular on static analysis measures, and there is quite a bit of collaboration from IDE developers (not sure about compiler authors).
So, a "vintage C++ off" is actually less unrealistic than you might believe. In particular, I see IDEs and compilers easily shifting to making it annoying for people to make raw allocations for example.
Still, point well taken about people tending to write "C+". They then also complain about how modern C++ is complicated and they can't "see what's going on" etc.
