Why would you teach someone C++, a language that has a lot of problems because it started as C with some sugar on top and then against all odds went ahead and added a ton of things that are very un-C-ish while still supporting all the C-ishness it had (has).

Teach new languages to new programmers. Then when they have firm grasp on these concepts, and for some cruel trick of fate they have to do C++ development, then they can look this up.
