lol thats not a c++ problem. Cpp is different lang than python. If u don't have experience with c++ stop complaining about it. And regarding developer experience it doesn't matter if end consumer are going to get slow bloated app which need python runtime to be installed lol.

I do have experience. It's my main language and my current job. C++ really sucks to work with for a developer even with types.

For building cloud services where apps are bottlenecked by the database, the user experience is roughly the same as C++ but the developer experience with python is much much much more easier.

This attitude where consumers have to run the apps or install a runtime to run the app on there personal machines is much more rare nowadays.

C++ type system is pretty weird to be honest. It's overly verbose, and at the same time too loose and too limiting.
