alt Hacker NewsI can’t deploy C++ modules to any of the hardware I use in the shop. Probably won’t change in the near-to-mid future.
It seems likely I’ll have to move away from C++, or perhaps more accurately it’s moving away from me.

Nobody uses all features of C++.
But you might not be able to use libraries that insist upon modules.

This is not an argument against modules. This is an argument against allowing areas that don’t upgrade hold modern c++ back.
If you tools are not updated that isn't the fault of C++. You will feel the same about Rust when forced to used a 15 year old version too (as I write this Rust 1.0 is only 10 years old). Don't whine to me about these problems, whine to your vendors until they give you the new stuff.
