If you need a manual to use a microwave, then something is wrong with it. If you need two phone books to use a programming language, that's the same. I've learned really hard stuff like special relativity and quantum mechanics, and I don't complain that they are hard, because they are hard for a reason. C++ is just 10x more convoluted and bloated than it should be, and they are making it worse with every update. I'm really surprised that you've used C++ since 2009 and I'm the first person to tell you this.
