I guess, the type of C++ taught there is the worst outdated kind of C++98 from a generic 20 y.o. text. You know, with the obligatory Circle class inheriting from Shape, all added on top of the traditional C control flow. With three vague paragraphs on the holy Encapsulation/Inheritance/Polymorphism trinity, ofc.

Indeed :) Although that is often the type of C++ taught here as well, and also used in industry at some top tier tech firms, unfortunately.
