Why is C++...

...so bad? Why does it have such a bad reputation?

I'm an experienced C++ programmer and, while the language has warts, I can't understand the reason for the enormous amount of criticism against the language.

I'd like to hear the honest opinions of /prog/rammers in this regard.

Uglyness and complications are highly subjective factors.
related to the standard libraries and to legacy C features

No.

template <typename T>
bool write(const T& obj) {
    typename T::iter i = obj.iter();
    // ...
}
Is typename really necessary? Oh wait. There's this nice feature auto type inference in the C++11.

template <typename T>
bool write(const T& obj) {
    auto i = obj.iter();
    // ...
}
auto type inference

template<class A, class B>
auto add(const A &a, const B &b) -> decltype(a+b) {return a+b;}
If this isn't ugly, at least it's verbose.
Seriously, C++ is going to break.
