You read the joke as if it was a comic book guy skit in the Simpsons, but I intended to convey it more like a Sideshow Bob & rake situation. "Ok, let's make a C++ extension" blam "Grml grml grml..."

I guess it depends if your expectations are those of a Python programmer or those of a C++ programmer.

That's a very good point, especially since there are people in this thread looking for using Pybind11 to speed up their existing Python code. They should be aware of the serious risks to correctness if they naively reimplement their Python code in C++. (People who regularly write in C or C++, we would hope, have heard this a thousand times before.)
