I've reached peak loathing of C++ at this point. I can see why people would want to lock up the recursive template metaprogramming double barrled automatic shotgun.
...but I get confused by the people who do that, and then turn around to embrace C, the circus where people juggling the chainsaws of "faking templates with macros", "terrible build times", "yet more security vulnerabilities resulting from undefined behavior", "no C-standard defined threading / async support until C1X", and more.
Well, people like C because it contains less language features and therefore is simpler. The error is thinking that simple and easy are the same thing. C is fiendishly difficult to write correctly.

It's common, but I don't get it.
