I may or may not like where C++ is going, but that's really beside the
point. I don't, and I believe sensibly, optimize every single line in what
I write. I don't shy away from doing it where it matters, but certainly I
appreciate convenience where it hardly matters. Primarily I work without UI
so I don't see why QML or Java would be at all relevant.

I never said it's the case. Are we talking about their decisions or the Qt
project's?

There was no rant. Just how I saw the case from the user side, granted
written with some bitterness. Not everything that doesn't profess the STL
as the greatest thing since the sliced bread can or should automatically be
classified as a rant. I had written 3 more paragraphs in that particular
email.
