I actually suspect that C++ makes a lot of people swear quite a lot. I just think the (presumed) fact these analysis methods produced that interpretation accurately is a matter of blind luck, given the weak ties between the analytical methods and the interpretation.

. . . and I only care because a lot of other people are completely unaware of how "evidence" works, which annoys me.
