Github user zwoop commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/804 It's an inefficiency for starters (you go through a C-> C++ wrapper layer, for no good reason (remember, the public APIs are all C, whereas in the core, you can use all the C++ objects and methods directly). In this case, it's marginal, but there are other places where it would be inefficient. And, it would add dependencies to the C-APIs in the C++ core which are undesirable in some cases.
