Interesting argument.  At first I thought that the following
uncensored interview with Bjarne Stroustrup was a joke, but your
argument makes it seem all the more plausible:

Some say that C++ was intentionally designed to be extremely difficult
to use specifically in order for C++ programmers to earn those "big
bucks."

Maybe this is just me, but if I had to choose a tool, I'd choose one
that would be easy to use well.
