For me, that's the standard argument about C++ having unnecessary complexity.

You don't keep learn new stuff because C++ is super, uber, powerful. It is because it is not designed well and there are far too many dark corners.

As I answered in another comment, I keep learning new stuff because the language is alive and evolving. IMHO it's getting safer and easier to use and understand.
