I love when dialects for C and C++ count as being proper C and C++, are even argued as being more relevant than ISO standards by themselves, but anyone else that does the same, it is no longer the same language.
As for Python not being the ideal, there we agree, but the solutions with proper performance already exist, Lisp, Scheme, Julia, Futhark,...
Heck maybe someone could dig out StarLisp.

I did not argue about CUDA being proper C++ :)
I honestly believe that the best days of C++ as an accelerator language are behind.
That is the main problem currently: We do miss a modern language for system programming that play well with accelerators. C++ is not (really) one of them (Hello aliasing).
I do not know if Mojo will succeed there, but I wish them good luck.
