I’ve read this same list or arguments elsewhere before, and I think this is mostly irrelevant, C and C++ evolved over time but they stayed close enough that you can relatively easily compile C code with a C++ compiler. The few incompatibilities are historical artefacts that would probably disappear at some point if the future, for the better. C and C++ are kind of two flavours of the same language, with different styles and paradigms. Referring to C/C++ is talking about both styles, and yes they can be mixed and that is perfectly fine.
