You’ll never find two C++ programmers with the same skill set. Every C++ project has its own peculiar subset of the language. Forget rvalue references, some code doesn’t even use references. This is a result of backwards compatibility. Features can only be added, not removed (or at least only removed if nobody is using them, like export templates and GC). As a result C++ hoovered many different types of users over the years who all had their own idea of what they wanted from the language. For a C++ programmer, navigating this by learning and adapting your skill set for a new project is simply a part of the job. You’ll always be able to find missing spots in even the most grizzled C++ vet’s knowledge.
