To me, it's the same thing. C++ is highly complex compared to C# and
some Server-Core without .NET running Hyper-V isn't even remotely a
common case. I would question why software is even being installed
on a machine like that. If you are going to break best practices by
putting applications on the parent partition, you might as well put
.NET and PowerShell on there while you are at it.
Remember that the _default_ installation of Server 2012 onwards is Core.
Of course installers are still needed for drivers and their management
tools, as well as anything like Web apps etc.
