                A little essay on why C++ is the most transparent language on the planet.
              
          
        
      
        
  
      
    On the Virtue of Transparent Language Design

The motivation for writing this comes from
this interview with Bjarne Stroustrup
which, even though unfortunately being fake, makes a good point and I found quite entertaining to read.
Consider this example code in C++ (You can assume vec3 is a class):
int main(int argc, char **argv)
	struct Valid<T>(T);

	trait Validate: Sized {
	fn validate(self) -> Result<Valid<Self>, Error>;
	}

	struct Error {
	msg: String,
	}
