is it bad that I prefer C to all the shit in C++?

Now I don't even write C/C++ regularly, so my opinion is probably shit. But I really like the simplicity of C over all the features of C++.

What is so simple about more than 200 documented cases of UB and all the ways one can write unsafe code without even knowing about it?

C++ has stronger type safety, offers the libraries and language features to only go down to C like unsafe coding as last resort.

C + classes does the job for me. I hate decoding code - that's the compilers job!
