Then don't use C++. There's a tool for every need. I wouldn't use C++ either if there was an option for cross-platform, high performance, non-garbage collected way to program highly interactive VR -applications. There simply isn't, so I must use C++ and learn it. But got to say, my experiences with learning C++11 has changed how I view C++, it's much more robust and nice environment than what I thought, the new C++11 and C++14 really bring some nice things to the table.
