The differences are there for a reason.
Keep in mind that the CORBA types and standard C++ types are performing different work behind the scenes. They each meet a different set of requirements. Standard C++ types are not proxies and perform no reference counting duties like their CORBA counterparts.
Abstracting away reference counting would limit the utility of distributed objects.
