Right; to clarify, the operations on a disabled hash should SFINAE.
Whether default
construction of a container should is another matter, but at least the
ill-formedness should be
portable. And I thought it must be, because the default constructor of
an unordered_set
is specified to default construct the hasher, so if that's ill-formed,
the default construction
of the unordered_set should presumably also be, Mandates or not.
