I believe that C++ needs a fat standard library because using third party libraries is a bit cumbersome in C++. Alternatively there could be a blessed build system that makes third party library integration as easy as Cargo or Go Modules.

I would say that CMake pretty much covers that. What it lacks is somehow a central registry, but I think C++ never intended to have one.

What C++ intended and what C++ should have intended are two different things.
