Given the importance of the problem I was hoping for a constructive discussion as it is free anyways for OSS projects.
The validity of your description of that paper aside (nothing in that
paper seems to "disallow" anything; it's just a look at the current
state of affairs), that doesn't justify your post. This ML is for
discussing the C++ standard as it exists. If you want to propose
changing it, there's a different ML for that.
