Huh? I think neither Vadim nor I needed your demagogy to know C is not
perfect, and in many places, indeed, "sucks hard". That alone hardly
makes C++ a viable alternative. You have noticed that in an earlier mail I
claimed no language is perfect, so you can lay off this "stop your crusade
for Python" stuff. I simply think that C++ is not a right fit for *any*
project. IOW, for any project there is a language which would have fitted
it better then C++. Why do people use C++? I don't know. I'm not a
psychologist.
This is my last e-mail on the subject. We have long ceased to say anything
interesting on the subject.
