What C++ is doing is nothing like what you propose.
C++ has only one standard namespace and that is "std", ("std??"

C++ is by and large backwards compatible. Both language and
standard lib. Only a tiny number of unused features have been
deprecated and signatures have been modified in non-breaking ways
for the most applications.
