   For algorithms like the ones in CLRS, which are explicitly written and proven with pointers in mind, definitely. As I wrote, the stdlib++ agrees. Read that code and reevaluate your view on whether it is ridiculous. For other graphs, it de

   I agree with this. Python is now more complex than C++. Python looks as if it is simple, because the syntax looks clean. If you read the new "compilers" [1] in packages like PyTorch, which are unfortunately written in Python,

   I think the focus on smart pointers is a huge mistake. Code bases using shared_ptr inevitably will have cycles and memory leaks, and no one understands the graphs any more. Tree algorithms that are simple in literature get bloated and slow
