Um why really? "No one uses them in C++"? How come?

Until this thread I didn't even know they existed.. and I've been coding in C++ for ~12 years. I suspect people who came to C++ from C (as I did) would not learn about them, because they are simply alternate syntax for something they already know and use.

I find them ugly and less clear - because I can glance at words & symbols and immediately see the operator, faster than with words and symbols.
