A good point.

We seem to have a lot of super programmers who don't make simple 
mistakes ever and know C++ back to front.  That's Great!

For myself, after programming in C++ for 7 years (and other languages 
before that) I still find myself making coding typo's and discovering 
new things about C++.  Keeping an open mind is key to getting better.

I bet even Bjarne Stroustrup himself does not know all the pitfalls he 
left in the language.

A couple of quotes to put names to:

"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new."

"...it's essential to keep an open mind, and to be willing--better yet, 
eager--to try new things."

"The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will 
insist on coming along and trying to put things in it."
