It's actually QtQuick that implements the scene grah and provides 
accelerated rendering of user interfaces. If you're willing to use 
private headers and deal with some inconvenience, you can use much of 
QtQuick from C++, without any QML (I don't recommend it, though).

QML is a general purpose language for composing object hierarchies. It's 
well suited for composing user interfaces, as they generally follow a 
pattern that maps well to the language's purpose. However, you can also 
use the QML language for other applications.

Feel free to hate on anything, but maybe first figure out what the thing 
you are hating actually _is_ ...

... it seems to be a common problem these days.
