By the same token, I think most uses for C++ these days are nuts. If you're doing a greenfield project 90% of the time it's better to use Rust.

C++ has a multitude of its own pitfalls. Some of the C programmer hate for C++ is justified. After all, it's just C with a pre-processing stage in the end.

There's good reasons why many C projects never considered C++ but are already integrating the nascent Rust. I always hated low level programming until Rust made it just as easy and productive as high level stuff
