C++'s smaller cleaner language
I will certainly admit that variadic generics and default initializers would be nice in some situations. For example there have been proposals to make #[derive(Default)] support default initializers, and I have a side project I could clean up a bit with variadic impls: https://github.com/rpjohnst/dejavu/blob/main/gml/src/vm/bind.rs. But it seems to balance out overall and I don't personally experience a need to write a bunch more code, let alone just to satisfy the compiler.

C++ Safety, in Context

But his side project at Microsoft didn't gain traction with gcc, clang, etc and everybody else in the industry. So at this point, the C++ committee will be perceived as "so far behind" ... because there's nothing for them to vote on.

C++ Should Be C++
C++ has major flaws that cannot be rectified without serious breaking changes. With that said, Herb has been experimenting with a new cpp frontend with sane defaults [1].
In my opinion, the world is on standby until Anders Hejlsberg feels like tackling a modern, next generation systems language.
