the obvious answer is that one does not want some things that C++ entails, three examples:
- name mangling
- larger gap between source code and ISA
- impedance mismatch when working with C APIs that being said, some do not want more macros either |

Can be turned off on demand for relevant symbols.
> larger gap between source code and ISA
There's already a huge gap between C code and machine code (see: Undefined Behavior). C hasn't been a "portable assembler" for a very long time.
> impedance mismatch when working with C APIs
C++ has no problem working with C APIs.
