That sounds like I was bashing it too much...don't get me wrong, I respect C++...its obviously very powerful and popular. But the fake interview was spot on in some points. There's just way too damn much stuff in it for one language, and on many projects, some of its features are used when they were completely unnecessary, only adding complexity and tangled mess. It takes a lot of time and effort to master all of its features, and in many cases is bad for productivity. Also, it is a nightmare reading through a large codebase, unless the project is very well designed and heavily commented.
