I've read Scott Meyer's Effective C++. On one of the first few pages it says something: "C++ can be hard, but if you think of it as three separate languages it much easier. One for the imperative, C inherited part, one for the object oriented part and one for the template part".
With that statement it's no turning back. It can never be a good language it can only become worse, no feature in the world can make up for that.
