It works as a "betterC" it seems, but you loose a lot of

decent (yet inferior to D meta-programming), closures,
exceptions, scopes...
It seems that there's an effort from the top to bring more higher
level features into --betterC. I agree with you that more should
be there, that it should really be betterC++ and strive for
feature parity with modern C++.
