To stretch the analogy, scissors are dangerous, but they're also very useful.

I prefer a language that lets me put away the scissors when I don't need them, so I don't cut someone's hand off. For example, Python with C bindings. The problem with C++, IMO, is that it doesn't let you put the scissors away.

Yes, much better to punch your users into submission so they don't even think of using their hands.
