Nah - more that a lot of commercial code is written in it; and it doesn't make sense to replace (or rewrite) it at this time.

For example, I'm maintaining some 20 year old C code, which the employer adopted around 10 years ago. It will likely stay in use at least until the current product is replaced, whenever that may be.

Let me rephrase that: I feel myself addressed by "some people will never move beyond C, no matter what" and I prefer C over C++, because it is a much simpler language. Each time I am leaving the cozy world of C and write C++ I am annoyed and miss things.
