I wouldn't say this is entirely wrong, but proper cross-platform package and test management with Cargo is a reason alone that utilizing existing code is waaay easier in Rust. C++ has more existing code though, so they might hit your niche needs better.

Here something like conan might finally win the hearts of C++ devs, but it is still pretty much in the beginning.

In what concerns Windows development, NuGET and vcpkg are already a big improvement.

NuGet is pretty good, I've only used it with C#/F# though.
