As a participant. I hope it can remain a reasonably rational, reasonably
fact based conversation even if it is a passionate one.
The reason I engaged the discussion is that I don't like reading
arguments against C++ that were written against and before C++11/14 and
its preferred model of programming. When there are possibly C++
advocates who may agree with some of the pre-C++11/14 arguments against,
but say we don't program that way.
It is easy to disregard old arguments when you don't know if they have
much fact for the current situation.

Is Maxime a male or female name?

I think it is hard to imply anything here. Email is a incredibly
difficult medium to convey things across multiple cultures and
languages. And many not native to English.
It could simply be how do I refer to you as a he or she in conversation.
Even with my own name. It is predominantly male. I am male. very male,
husband, father, grandfather. But there are a reasonable number of women
with this name. So it is hard to assume anything, especially across
cultures and languages.
