C++ is what it is. It is "itself." I mean that in the Irish euphemism for moonshine kind of way. C++ is kind of like its own const keyword. It is what it is. const isn't immutability. It's something else. It isn't "pure" -- but it's still pretty darn useful.

My guess is that you're missing a cultural referent, and you're unused to programming language discussion comments that aren't contentiously positive or negative, but are rather whimsical.
