Just this fact: //"In addition, this rule is applicable for C++ > programs [bla bla]."// where `[bla bla]` is something like "calling C > standard library operations" or "dealing with C API" or "handling C data > structures" or simply no extra "elaboration", depending on what the rule is > targeting.
