The decision would be easier if the C subset in C++ would be compatible with modern C standards instead of being a non-standard dialect of C stuck in ca. 1995.

Of course not! Those that would have, already did!
No, RAII is one of the primary improvements of C++ over C, and one of the most ubiquitous features that is allowed in "light" subsets of C++.
