I have disagreed with Cyberax before, but to say he doesn't know c++ or contribute to the discussion is silly, at least based on my experience.

In fact this exact discussion is helpful to me, as I'm escaping my day to day of Java by resurrecting an old c++ program written before any of this _ptr stuff, and have been trying to bring it up to date, so I can then... replace as much as us reasonable with Rust 😄

c++ is a big, old language. Calling some ignorant because they don't use it how you expect is not helpful.

In general, when somebody needs to lie to make his case, the most reasonable conclusion is that he has no case to make. We would need good reasons to reconsider such a conclusion.
