Wouldn't modern C++ be better suited than Rust because it's closer to C?

I know that old C++ got some bad reputation in the past but I think it's time to reconsider that with the changes that started with C++11. The only area where Rust really is better is the management of lifetimes and its associated higher memory safety.
