Most articles I've read say that if fixing a bug in the design phase takes 1
unit of effort, fixing it during development will take 20 units of effort
and fixing it during beta testing will take 400 units of effort. That's
what we are witnessing with TS2K.

I disagree. Professionals can organize themselves properly and do very
large and effective projects in C++. If you don't have professional
programmers, then professional managers should be able to compensate. If
you don't have either, then it really doesn't matter what language you're
using.
