C++ Is the New Python

This sounds like you're describing C++ from 20 years ago. Or maybe some ugly monstrosity like Qt.

Everything uses/supports standard library containers or interfaces now.

There's nothing ugly about Qt. In particular, the core system defines a way to add features to classes that were missing (MOC) and provides a full foundation of types up to network and other event-driven multi-threaded servers. Frankly I think it's one of the best examples of C++ I've seen.

Some counterexamples that I've dealt in the recent years include LLVM, Abseil and Windows COM APIs.
