What I'm saying is that people who are bad at C++ get all of the bad parts (memory allocation hell) but none of the good parts (supar speeeeeed). Since most people are bad at programming, it confuses me why they want to use a tool that makes them look bad when they could trade a little theoretical speed for a program that actually runs.

Wait, I answered my own question.
