Everything is easier with single file headers. This idea that a build system and single header libraries are mutually exclusive is silly.
You can take multiple single file libraries and put them into one compilation unit. Then you have minimal files and minimal compilation units. Compilation is faster, everything is simpler.
What is silly is pretending everything is a scripting language.
I don't know what that is supposed to mean and I don't think it means anything.
I'm talking about real pragmatic benefits and you're making some vague hand wavy judgement without any tangible explanation.
