What I find with C++ is that there are many languages inside it. Put 5 C++ programmers in a room and you'll probably end up with 6 different styles.

That the language may have some Python-esque tendencies (given very particular language, compiler and library versions, and a depth of knowledge not required in the Python equivalent) doesn't seem that interesting. Especially when you consider that 9/10 C++ programmers you meet don't actually code in that style and don't intend to.
