It's been said that the largest useful subset of C++ is ... C.
Yes, I've heard that said many times, and in specific cases where I've moved a project from C to C++ I was told exactly that. However, I've personally demonstrated that this is not true to the agreement of the people making such criticisms. I assure you, the largest useful subset approximates the whole language (okay, maybe minus std::vector<bool> ;-).
