Not the author but I sense that going down that road there is risk of derailing into which lang is best.
- optymizer 3y agoI can see that happening, and I would frame it as a choice rather than absolute truths, i.e. "this set of strengths of C" vs "this other set of stregths of C++". Imo the sets are disjoint enough that "C/C++" is doing the users of both languages a disservice, but convincingnothers of this does require a better essay.
