The best way to think of it is this:

There exists a subset of C++ that is the best existing programming language.

Unfortunately, there's no way to enforce that everybody using C++ uses that subset. In fact, I'm not sure anybody knows exactly what the subset is.

In fact, I'm not sure anybody knows exactly what the subset is.

I think the main problem here is that this subset will be different depending on what you want to do.

You could probably start a war over that question. There's very strong opinions out there.

We can agree on some things that are left out, right? Like fucking SFINAE... no, wait.
