And yet, they both still suffer from the flaw that the parent comment cites. Describing a shared property doesn't imply a claim that they're the same language.

I dunno; the flaw is not really comparable, is it? The skill and discipline required to write C bug-free is an orders of magnitude less than the skill and discipline required to write C++.

Unless you read GGPs post to mean a flaw different to "skill and discipline required".

		I'd argue that their point was that the required amount of skill and discipline of either is higher than it's worth at this point for new projects. The difference doesn't matter if even the lower of the two is too high.
