[1] I mostly agree stock build commands are seldom (if ever) useful with
C and C++, but for the most basic "Hello World".  .o generation is even
less useful.
However, I do have a custom script (that fetches some deps by inspecting
includes) there I use to build very simple or test stuff, and it's very
handy in such cases.
But in all cases, we could imagine having many sorts of commands, maybe
a linter or anything; anyway not necessarily the same handling both C
and C++.
