C++ is focused on getting a strong degree of root control over the hardware of lots of systems. Which is part of why it's difficult.

Only a part. A lot of the complexity is completely unnecessary.

Sorry, Undefined Behavior Everywhere was yelling way too loud to hear you clearly.

Were you talking about strong controlling anything with C++?

I mean, if you're talking about CVEs permitting attackers to get control of the hardware of lots of systems, then yes, I agree
