On a related note, I'd encourage any QGIS dev to watch KDAB's
"Effective Qt (2017 edition)" presentation:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZ68dX1-sVc

Their advice from the first slide:

"Don't use the Qt containers - unless you have to".

And that's coming from KDAB, who are massive contributors to Qt and
know the framework backwards!
