Not sure I understand what point you're trying to dispute. It's not obvious at all that you read either my post or the paper I posted authored by the main contributors to MSVC and GCC about the issues mixed-mode applications present to the implementation of the standard library given that you haven't presented any defense of your position that addresses these issue. You seem to think that just declaring something "legit" and retorting "you are incorrect" is a sufficient justification.

If this is the extent of your understanding it's a fairly good indication you do not have sufficient background on this topic and may be expressing a very strong opinion out of ignorance of this topic. It's not at all uncommon that those with the most superficial understanding of a subject express the strongest views of said topic [1].

Doing a cursory review of some of your recent posts, it looks like this is a common habit of yours.

I have literally copy-pasted the fragments from the paper you're referring to which invalidate your points. How is that not obvious? Did you read the paper yourself or you're just holding strong opinions yourself, as you usually do whenever there is something to backlash against C++? I'm glad you're familiar with the Dunning-Kruger effect, this means there is some hope for you.
