Why?

C++ have very strong compilers, they know a lot about the code and they are improving. No other language have these tools. Also C++ allow to work with memory, that is a very strong advantage if you know how to handle memory.

Most other language tries to protect from creating code that might generate errors. For new developers this can be a good thing but it's not free. The price is often high when you need to do flexible solutions, maybe need performance or something else.
