A worst-case upper bound that will never be hit even by insane usage is of purely academic interest - particularly in this discussion, since the feature that permits the O(nn) worst case in C++ is also present in C. Now, I'll happily admit that real-world incremental recompilation times are worse for C++ than C - but the worst-case upper bound is a red herring there.
