That's right. C being more limited, it has a more simplistic ABI. But the parent comment was replying the "need for a stable, standard ABI, which C provide". Which is misleading as both C++ and C have the same level of stability and standardisation of their ABI. (I.e: none of them is standardized, but both of them are stable on practice)

Yep, you're right.

There is a difference, but the difference is in complexity, not availability.
