I'm sure your compile times suck and code is not readable (my subjective opinion as well). There's nothing worse than a ten-mile long lambda in C++. To each there own, however. C++ is four languages in one after all. :)

Templates are really amazing, once you learn the patterns there's basically a template version and a runtime version of things (policy types, etc.). All of that is great.

Legibility and understanding are in my opinion the most important aspect of any programming language, so Orthodox C++ is superior for maintainable code.

Let's get real here, politics or otherwise, unless the WHOLE THING is open-sourced (code, weights, data, etc) then it's built on future deception (pulling the rug from underneath).

Like, DUH, people. What are we doing here?
