I am inclined to follow your lead.  C++ code compiles without errors
as I mentioned.

The bug affects "c++-mode" and since c++-mode mostly (solely?) affects
cosmetics, then the bug makes c++-mode difficult to use.  In fact, I
have been searching for alternatives, in vain.

I would suggest keeping severity as "important" if this report can be
assigned more precisely to the "c++-mode" sub-package or group.  If
not, then you may downgrade to "minor" as you said.
