Not necessarily wrong, but either limited to specific scenarios 
or unnecessarily verbose compared to what can be done in the 
latest version of the language.

When you have overlapping mechanisms it becomes more difficult to 
read the code as there are too many ways for people to express 
the same thing. For a wide spread and  continuously developing 
language like C++ it gets worse because developers keep using 
whatever was "right" when they learned about that feature.
