@deprecated_ii I think Real Programmers ™️ could make good use out of it but if you throw Real Programmers ™️ into this cesspool and force them to work along side the riffraff, all the efficiency in the world will be readily defeated by Pajeet Shitstreet and Lilith Thighhigh writing vector dot copy() for every trivial operation on a 4 megabyte data block.

That's literary exactly what I'm seeing by the way. I was trying to diagnose why a rather trivial piece of code was causing literal multiple minutes of latency and I discovered that it was trivial json parsing code that was passing in (giant fucking list).copy() into every single "find child element" call. I have never in my life seen such a thing happen in the C++ world.
