I think you missed the point of my summary.  You spent several articles
criticizing C++, all based on nothing more than idle speculation that
some code we haven't seen *might* have been written in C++.  You also
expressed disbelief that Scott's code did what he said it did.  You
could have simply asked him rather than implying that he's a liar.

Neither.

(void(*)(void) IS how C denotes the type of a pointer to a function
that takes no arguments and returns no result.  It doesn't matter
whether I, you, or anybody else likes it.  It's not going to change
in any language called "C".

I *do not particularly like* C's declaration syntax.  Most people
don't.  Most C programmers manage to get over that, and move on to
learning how to use the language.
