I can understand this, but from a developers point of view it is really
very stupid to ignore good work done by others.

In general, dealing with both C and C++ means that all sorts of
unwanted C-isms slip in (mainly dealing with memory stuff, but string
allocation is another one). You also need various C-type callbacks.
And I'm not sure how error and exception handling will mix with the
C++ code.  In the end, all this guaranteed to make mnemonic less
stable.
