Ok, so downvote and no reply:

- you can use string_view more conservatively

- you can stick to value semantics.

- use spans in things that do not escape.

- use smart pointers.

- do not capture escaping lambdas that have capture by reference.

If you go wild raw pointers willy-nilly around, then yes, you are gonna have a plague of sh*t because you are an incompetent using C++. I do not expect people to play the violin or drive a car without a minimal of training.

I'm guessing that the downvotes were because people were focusing on how easy c++ makes it to unwittingly introduce such bugs.

So suggesting a disciplined usage of c++ sounded like a hard sell. It's helpful that you elaborated on the details.

It is not so much of a disciplined thing compared to what you need to do in C...
