I agree that in principle the neutralization bugs aren't something C++ is necessarily making worse than, say, Python. But it'd be fascinating to see a study to figure out whether C++ programmers make these mistakes more often, or less often, or roughly the same.

An argument for more often: C++ is so complicated, maybe you're too busy with other problems to address the neutralization issue

An argument for less often: C++ teaches you to be careful and check everything to avoid nasty outcomes so that carries over to neutralization
