Yes, they have looked at bloat and come up with simple solutions 
that work well, such as replacing "function objects" with lambdas.

However, usability in 2022 means IDE-friendly. C++ and D are not 
particularly friendly to people creating advanced IDEs.

C++ will probably be replaced with a language that allows new and 
better ways to express programming ideas in the form of IDEs 
(with graphical modelling support etc). Let's hope it is 
something far better than the current challengers.
