You are attributing an unwarranted importance to a set of generic containers 
while ignoring every other feature that is provided by C++.  Even if the STL 
wasn't added to the C++ standard, C++'s support for generic programming 
would make it possible that anyone with a basic data structures course (or 
even intro to programming) could easily develop their own generic data 
structures.  In fact, that's something that, in spite of the STL, some 
people still do.  In addition, some popular C++ toolkits still rely on their 
own generic containers instead of the STL.  So, I believe it is safe to say 
that STL's role in decisions regarding migrations from C to C++ is a bit 
overblown.
