I trust you on that, but I'd like to understand more: if the compiler
can parse them, why couldn't it reflect them?

Till now I thought attribute arguments could be literals only, but
reading the draft it appears they can be any sequence of 4 types of
tokens: identifier, keyword, literal, operator-or-punctuator [1].

Do I get that right? If so, what makes it impossible to reflect that?
