If all you're doing is passing around int* and the like, then the situation is the same as in C and is fine. But stuff like int[] becomes problematic, because it assumes that you're using the GC. But that's stuff that doesn't exist in C++.
It exists in C++, but is broken into multiple separate concepts: std::string_view, std::vector, gsl::span etc.
D and Go mixes up a view and ownership which is confusing.
