I don't know C++ libraries well enough to argue directly.
What I *do* know from 10+ years of experience is that I am generally able to
prepare a comparable engine in considerably shorter time with Foundation
than my colleagues do with C++, and that my code tends to be shorter (in
average half the number of lines) and more stable. Therefore I very doubt
that it would be as you said.
(And no, it is not that I happen to be a better programmer: the same applies
for all others whom I know to use OpenStep.)
