I agree with you here in terms of coding time.

It takes much less time to code in C++ because there are many shortcut methods.

Hence in a competition, one using C++ has an edge over those using Pascle as C++ saves coding time. :)

However, be warned that C++ takes much more time to debug if you happen to make mistakes. In other words, unless you are an expert in C++, it is relatively difficult to debug.
