From the article:

  In 2019 I wrote a short survey of C constructs that do not 
  work in C++. The point was not that C is sloppy or that C++ 
  is superior. The point was that C++ is not a superset of C, 
  and that C programmers crossing the border should know 
  where the checkpoints are.
C++ was a superset of C 30-ish years ago. Now, as the author correctly identifies, it is not as both have taken different evolutionary paths.
