So a bit like Python or any other language of similar age.

Working occasionally with modern Python helped me love and respect C++ even more.

Python3 is what, 15 years old?

I start counting from Python 1.

Well if c++ had the liberty of scrapping the language twice in the last 30 years I'm sure it would look better too.

That is probably what they should have done ..l

Python 2 to 3 mess is exactly why all languages think twice about breaking backwards compatibility.
