Sorry you went through that, I hope you don't see this as an attack to
you personally.

It's not a "language lawyer" kind of bug. This is an ergonomics bug.

MSVC is requiring an additional flag when it would be perfectly fine
(at least on this particular version of the standard) to just produce
the BMI in all cases.

I don't have the full context on the decision for why that flag was
added, but I cannot see from the current point in time why that flag
should be required.
