You made me laugh!...Bjarne indeed can't be accused of being a modest man. And by some accounts, he's quite a political animal.
But in fairness, when was D&E first published? Argued for auto there, long before their acceptance. Argued for implicit template instantiation - thank god the "everything-must-be-explicit" curmudgeons were vanquished there, too.
He's got a pretty good batting average - certainly better than Herb Sutter.
