No it's not.

The language keeps growing, with

- new features overlapping old features from previous standards without replacing them or deprecating them (function::copyable_function vs std::function, std::less<> key for transparent lookup in maps)

- new features not usable by the layman (coroutines ...)

- Cryptic syntax (reflection...)

- Stuff you are told not to use because of performance reason and that cant be fixed because of ABI (regex)

- Compile errors that are 1km long (no, concepts are not helping here, the 'nicer' message is still buried into a hot pile of template instantiation callstack).
