I’ve been a professional programmer for nearly a decade and I just realized that C# is C++++ with the pluses stacked
Yes, and that is on purpose! It was always meant to be a joke on C++ :)

I really like the theory that the Carbon language is that 3-dimension one—a carbon lattice

I wonder if I could upgrade it to Windows 95 and run X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter on it.
C ube?
Fun fact, C didn’t have a lot of things like Classes and was often distributed or stored alongside various libraries so it was C Plus (as in addition to) Libraries before it was C++, and somebody decided the next iteration was C with 4 pluses, which forms a #
