This will be a long wall of text, and kinda random! My main points are:

C++ compile times are important,

Non-optimized build performance is important,

Cognitive load is important. I don’t expand much on this here, but if a programming language or a library makes me feel stupid, then I’m less likely to use it or like it. C++ does that a lot :)
