It's about weight. The landing legs on the Falcon 9 first stage make up 10% of the dry weight if I remember correctly. 10% is huge savings for a booster. They've already proven they can do pinpoint landings so moving the hardware

I found Stroustrop's book A Tour of C++ very useful for catching up with C++14/17. It's relatively short and it's easy to skim through parts you already know well. It was just updated for C++20 (with some coverage of C++
