I guess one possible reason is if there’s no C++ compiler for an obscure platform as it would be too much work, but there is an up-to-date C compiler

Yeah, seems like half of the embedded architectures are like this. Well, the C compiler is not quite standards compliant, and often made to an older version of the C spec, but give it time—the C2x standard comes out this year, and it may not benefit people in the embedded space until some years down the road.

Second-best time to plant a tree, and all.
