Your use of the word "worshippers" suggests a misunderstanding on
your part.

I certainly do not "worship" anything about C.  I don't think
anyone else you've been talking to does either.  I have a pretty
good understanding of it.  There are plenty of things I don't
particularly like.

In the vast majority of my posts here, I simply try to explain what
the standard actually says and offer advice based on that.
