C++ had a defined multithreaded memory model and 2's compliment behavior before C did. Since you're all about UB, that kinda matters. A lot.

Well, I'll check who gets rid of all undefined overflows first. 2's complement is nice and dandy, but if overflow is still undefined that doesn't buy me much.

Point taken about multi threading.
