No? What you said makes no sense. C++ library is consistent, and the error handling is via exceptions, which means not verbose at all, for most cases.

For C++, you want to complain about unreadable error messages, long compilation times, verbose type declarations, and use-after-free bugs.

Each language is different, and has a different trade off. A good developer can use multiple languages: C++ when you have lots of non-trivial data processing, Python for numeric and complex scripts, bash for bootstrapping and simple scripts, and so on.
