I think of OO more as a design philosophy than a language feature. The 
early problem I saw with C++ was projects that implemented classes 
bottom up. If you saw they had written their own string class, you 
immediately knew the project was going to fail.

The basic idea behind this is that initially you need to have a good 
overall picture of what your application is going to do. You need to be 
able to split a project into separate parts, separate components. This 
effectively mapped to designing classes top down.

The failing projects would get programmers learning a new language 
trying to develop utility classes to make their life "easy". They would 
spend all their time doing this and hence the project would fail. It 
would also be difficult to on board new programmers, due to all the 
badly designed utility classes they needed to learn.

Of its self I thought C++ was a brilliant language, for its time.

It maps fine. Most optimisation is about efficient algorithms, not about 
shaving micro-seconds off a loop in a crap or naive algorithm.

Without high level concepts such as objects, it is very hard to 
implement more abstract, but more efficient algorithms. Caveat, I'm 
relatively bad with complexity. I'm very good with simplicity, but bad 
with complexity, I have sometimes wondered if there are different types 
of intelligence. I have worked with Cambridge types who claimed to be 
good with complexity.

Yes, I could implement OO designs in C, and I would if I had to, but I 
would be borrowing what I learnt from C++ and other OO languages.

Syntactic sugar can be nice, as long as it doesn't obscure what is 
really going on. Mainly I don't like it because it makes unfamiliar 
languages harder to understand.

Oh, I can be unaware of what my code is really doing, in any language :-)

And you can deallocate RAM many times, or not at all. I have a friend 
interested in music and he won't touch garbage collection, but I rarely 
cared about non deterministic short pauses. The benefits of not doing 
all the janitor stuff with memory was huge.

I think even non garbage collection modern languages try to automate 
memory allocation and deallocation, ref counting, out of scope 
destructors etc. Being happy with garbage collection I never looked at 
it, but the ideas date back to (at least) the mid 1990s C++, Scott 
Meyers etc.
