For the confusion part, the real confusion (rather shock) awaits when they get to the part where they see "new" but no "delete". We could argue against this all the way, but to every single of us "new" and "delete" are a pair.
For non-garbage-collected languages, yes. For GC languages, delete is to be discouraged (that is what the GC is for).
Java and C# code do not have much use for delete either, so people coming from those languages will feel right at home without the delete keyword I would think.
