C++: "look at what others must do to mimic a fraction of my power"

This is cute, but also I'm baffled as to why you would want to use macros to emulate c++. Nothing is stopping you from writing c-like c++ if that's what you like style wise.

You'll just have to get used to the C++ community screaming at you that it's the wrong way to write C++ and that you should just use Go or Zig instead
