IMHO C++ is unfairly singled out with regards to it's extension. That criticism rings true if applied to pretty much every single programming language ever devised, including "small" languages such as C.

C, even today, fits entirely in my head. C++ does not.

I suspect this is not an uncommon situation among programmers.
