I honestly don't know why they even have -> instead of just a dot like everyone else. The compiler knows whether it's a record, object, pointer, or any level of pointer to pointers.

Why make the programmer do the donkey work?

I love the arrow in functional programming. Some functional languages (like reasonml) has multiple arrow operators that did different things like this one -> would put the argument in the first position (a popular JS pattern) and the big arrow |> would put it last like most functional languages.

I know this is about CPP but honestly I love the way it looks, but I'm a weirdo lol
