I don't mond C++ evolving into some thing of its own beyond all recognition, but there is a distinct lack of modern "C with Classes" language. Basically, C on steroids. There are attempts at that, but none is perfect and/or has enough traction to be viable.
There's more viable coding styles in C++ than I can honestly even bother to count. There's absolutely no reason to limit the language to one specific coding style when doing so would alienate large groups of users and you can set those limits yourself on your project.
For example, there are cases where the existence of move semantics necessitates adding some boilerplate when working with STL containers. There's no functional reason for it, just something to please the compiler.
