he knew too few about programming,- maybe it is better to avoid people like that, because their expectations sometimes may be unreal. You know, there are many Delphi/Pascal programmers around, the language being ranked 8th place by its spread and usage, tons of stuff's written in that language (in many cases it compiles to faster code than C/C++, because it allows to avoid silly mistakes and bugs, etc, etc..) and they also tell stories about meeting "knowledgeable experts" asking them to do things in C only. And there is nothing you can do about these people,- they just are... like people who care more about what car they will be riding rather than what is their destination ;-)

all the best

I asked because recently a potential client told me that 'real' programs
are written in C++  (actually, he said "C"). He had heard of "C", maybe
even seen it in  a book or a movie like The Matrix. His understanding
or knowledge of it all stopped there. However, he had money, wanted to
do something, and 'had to have' "C" - period, end of story.
