Oh my, why most CLI apps in C++ suck so hard at parsing arguments? They don’t can’t call getopt() or what?

I see lots of crappy ad-hoc parsing that’s as capricious as 2yo in a mall. High-level object oriented metaprogramming my ass..

@dpwiz I think it's due to exploits or memory safety. I used to want to learn more of Cpp but that's before it started to bloat.
