That seems to be a "feature" of any given programmer.  Since Jim is
going to be the programmer regardless of the language choice, the
level of code cleverness and quality of commenting will likely be the
same.

FWIW, I'd go with C, just because there's at least some
standardization for C and therefore, among compilers, whereas there
isn't with C++, which would allow for somewhat better potability if
that's important.
