C++ is more *powerful* than Java, but it doesn't mean its
better. I would rather be programming in Java over C++, any

I simply can't write any reasonable code when being restricted by

realizing it is incapable of expressing models I have in mind.
Will prefer C++ debugging madness over that 10 times out of 10.
