> Managing C++ dependencies _is_ much easier! It's either "run this setup exe" or "extract this zip file/tarball/dmg and run".
Not sure if that was half sarcastic, but from experience, anything touching c++ & CUDA has the potential to devolve into a nightmare on a developer-friendly platform (hello kernel updates!), or worse, into a hair-pulling experience if you happen to use the malware from Redmond (to compound your misery, throw boost and Qt dependencies in the mix).
Then again, some of the configurations steps required will be the same for Python or C++. And if the C++ developer was kind enough to provide a one-stop compilation step only depending on an up-to-date compiler, it might, indeed, be better than a Python solution with strict package version dependencies.
