> 1. There's still a lot of complexity and ambiguity you can fit in 460 pages. That's a meaningless assertion and reads like a non-sequitur. Your thesis is that modern C++ somehow became complex. Yet, the truth of the matter is that modern C++ is mostly comprised of formerly third-party libraries, initially released as part of the likes of Boost, that were since then added to the standard. The core language did received much needed improvements throughout the years, such as aggregate initialization with designated initializers, but the total sum of these changes barely grew the standard in around 5% of it's initial size. Unless you come up with clear examples that you feel support your thesis, you'll have to scratch out your complains as irrational dislikes.
