My point is that I need more hash for `std::vector<int>` than for
`std::vector<bool>` as it is a bit a black sheep of containers.
Writing hash for `int` it is not so hard as we can easily find
hundreds of examples on StackOverflow or Boost.
But if it is so easy why do standard not provide it? or at least some
basic building blocks.

I was consider using some non trivial logic that would rely on
`std::hash` but finding that standard lacks basic tools for it,
I now need spend day or two to find some replacement "should I believe
in code of this student from StackOverflow?",
 "how correctly implement hash combine?", "what library should I grab
for hash functions?".
Lot of time wasted that could be solved by standard at least in the
basic version that will be better than some random code
copy-pasted from QA sites.

This is a bit 22-catch, if implementation is easy, why then standard
do not have it?
 If implementation is hard, how could I even correctly implement this
myself, should it not be part of standard?
