To clarify, you think that low-level systems software is only a secondary use case for C++? The part you quoted does not make claims about whether there are other primary use cases, just that low-level systems software is one of them, so it's not clear why it being useful elsewhere is a rebuttal of that.

There are only so many OS kernels to be written. Nothing else is really low-level these days.
