Because it's not that easy to be expert in C++. All other reasons people give are just crap! They don't wanna do it, because they don't wanna work hard!

High levels are just easier ones as compared to lower ones! And those high levels are just languages designed using the low level ones! C and C++ are known to be mother languages, most languages are inherited from these. These lower languages provide speed and more command over the memory with the concepts like pointers. So there's no point of high lvl languages being "better" than lower ones. Last thing i'd say is, mostly it depends on your own skills n knowledge that to which extent you can use a language. Those are just tools anyway!

To sum up what people said. There is many more concept to master in C++ to do something ok than with some other high level languages. And starting with this one can be discouraging for many people (me included ;) ) I came to c++ in a second phase when i was ok with programming concept (algorithm, design pattern, ...) then went to understand the underling part of the computer and so on... C++ is for me one of the best languages (if not the best) because of it's versatility, robustness and precision, but like any advanced tool it doesn't go well in the hands of the neophyte. :)

No idea. People who use languages like Python argue that high level languages are capable of doing more with less code and less difficulty, but that also means less flexibility, less speed, and less practice with problem solving. I think that if people want a high level language, it should at least be a compiled one.
