C++ is an older, lower level language than Java. Should run a bit faster as well.
I'm honestly not convinced this will happen, at least not to the extent that one might think. If we were in the hypothetical timeline where both a Java version and C++ version co-exist I completely believe that the C++ version would receive comparatively little modding support from the community (see the divide caused by the changes made after 1.7.10). Unless of course, a modding API is implemented, but I'll just flat out say that this won't happen. I will gladly eat my hat if it does.
Basically C++ will benefit vanilla, but I personally believe mainstream modding will likely stay on java for a very long time, assuming mods even become practical for the C++ version.
ZitzabisDevs would start making mods for both versions
