I understand C++ quite well. I just hate having to put in concerted

I didn't disagree with your complaints about the cognitive load of the
language. Indeed, this is why the language is so often misunderstood:
due to the huge cognitive load (relative to other languages) most
practitioners are only familiar with a subset of it. It's right up there
with Perl in terms of complexity, although Perl has the merit of being
useful with only a basic understanding.
