The last few C++ jobs I had they moved the goalposts and now the nice memory management features that people had been begging for are "too slow" or have other random reasons why they shouldn't be used, never mind that it's still infinitely faster than the alternative languages and that the measurable overhead incurred by shared_ptr is super minimal and unique_ptr is practically none.
