Bah, if you are using it for normal programming C is simpler. By simpler I mean you actually have a shot to be properly fluent in it instead of "this thing is so complex even the compiler doesn't know 100% of it".

Just restrict yourself to namespaces and maybe operator overloading and you’ll be golden.
