C++ in particular has a thriving industry of people who'll come teach your team to write "proper" C++.

You've probably heard that "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it" and so of course we shouldn't expect such people to say "Don't write this in C++" when they can instead get paid to teach "How to write this in C++" for 2-3 days and feel like they made the world a better place on top.

It so happens Rust is my favourite language, or at least, my favourite general purpose language, but it's also true that I am currently mostly paid to write C# and I see absolutely no reason why I'd say "No, this should be Rust" for most work I do in C#
