yeah but to be fair, I work in a fully C++ shop and only 3 (maybe 4) of 
us out of 18 will *ever* write template code.

even for really trival stuff.

In my xp, most c++ programmers just don't/can't get templates and I very 
much doubt that awkward syntax is the root cause.

if you are one of those people why whould you chose a language with 
templates? they are off no dam use to you.
