In the sake of consistency, I demand to throw all C-inherited stuff out of C++ right now! Seriously, inconsistency comes form having lots of people working with, and to improve, the language. Exactly the same happend with natural languages, they are all full of inconsistencies, irregular forms... I suppose this means they are alive! And I defend some of the decisisons taken: certain operations (specially casts) should be ugly to remember us that the operation implied is ugly by itself.
