No, he's just a very honest programmer. I doubt if *anyone* has figured
out how to use C++.  (That is, in a way that is actually correct and
bug-free. There are, of course, many ways of writing C++ code, and most
of them are wrong. I don't know if we have found a way to write C++ code
that isn't wrong by definition or 99% buggy.)
