Please forgive me for trying to make a brief, honest answer to the net.
I could have easily, and I mean outright *EASILY*, just ignored the whole
issue.  Instead I think it silly that it's being reduced to net-noise.

Your question is confusing.  I use printf in my C++ code all the time.
There are lots of reasons to use printf in C++.

To make you happy, if instead I'd changed that line from
'printf("hello, world\n");' to 'cout << "Hello, world\n";'
my reported results would have been *EXACTLY* the same.

Now that's another issue.
