C++ is such a damn chore. This is partly why, everyone always assumes they can do it better, they don't trust any other code, so you end up with monoliths of NIMBY code and esoteric build setups. Code reviews are incredibly painful for the same sort of C++ reasons, everything can effect everything, the whole idea of encapsulation tends to fall apart when memory, time, ordering behavioral effects get relied on after some amount of time usage. Every change is a footgun to be found in production under just the right circumstances. Hard to be productive when you can't trust the language, the tools, or other developers to be correct.
