Well, speaking for DirectX 1-7 , I do not see exactly what C++ would have
gained us (except headaches when you would have needed to check the
generated ASM to see if the compiler did the right thing behind your back to
map 100 % with MS's COM API).
Anyway, it could only have helped us a bit on the COM inftrastructure (which
is about 2 % of the total work and was mostly auto-generated by a Python
script :-) ).
