Unfortunately we still have folks writing C++ in the style of pre-C++98 with no desire to change.

It is like adopting Typescript, but the only thing they do is renaming the file extension for better VScode analysis.

Another one is C++ "libraries" that are plain C with extern "C" blocks.

Sure, and we also still have people coding in K&R-style C. Some people are hard to change in their ways, but that doesn't mean the community/ecosystem hasn't moved on.

Sure, and you also see "C Libraries" that are the exact same. I don't usually judge the communities on their exceptions or extremists.
