When you write a library, consider that other languages will want to
create their own bindings for it. This is easier with a C library than
C++.

By all means put a C++ layer on top of a C core. Then those other
languages can bypass that C++ layer and build on the C core, taking
advantage of their own language-specific cleverness, without having to
hack their way through the thicket of C++ cleverness.
