If Bjarne was so powerful, how come they voted contracts into C++26 despite his strong concerns? How come he publicly vents his frustration with the direction the language is taking?

Bjarne isn't god and I didn't say he was. So no, he isn't all-powerful.

Bjarne has always been frustrated by the failures of C++ and has always blamed them on other people. He's an egotist, they're always like that, I find it exhausting.

You have some valid points, but I think you could have made them without the gross hyperbole and slander.
