Not sure why you are getting downvoted, but this alone would make me switch (Still waiting for Qt moc support):

> No more weird forward declarations

We c++ devs just have collectively accepted that this hack is still totally ok in the year 2025, just to improve build times.

The only thing that forward declaration buys you is avoiding to include a header, which is not that expensive in C, but thanks to templates something as innocent as including a header can become infinitely expensive in C++.

Forward declaration breaks dependency chains so that you don't need to recompile vast swathes of your codebase anytime an upstream header file is modified.
