You’re mixing up developers becoming more competent with the language becoming easier.
Neither C++ nor Rust are becoming easier unless new features are added which make them simpler to use in some circumstance.
C++11 & co did make many things simpler.
For Rust I don’t know the details of what’s upcoming; it doesn’t seem to be getting simpler.
