This seems like an extremely low bar.

Anyway, what use is there for C++ in 2025 aside from maintenance of legacy codebases and game engines? Off-hand I'd say C++ programmers are twice as expensive as rust programmers for the same semantics, and then you're still stuck with a C++ programmer you need to figure out how to socialize with.
