And about:
> what so good about [cout << "text" << endl]?
I would say: nothing! As shown by the fact that no language after C++ have reused this poor syntax, prooving that this was really not a good idea.
The reason that neither of you found anything good in this is because you did not understood the point here is operator overloading. In certain circumstances, "endl" might not be "n", but in C++ iostream, you retained the symbolic logic and portability.
You can also overload "<<" with output for a matrix, which you can never handle by pure string concatenation.
