At least two:

*std::print is headed for C++23. std::cout is now a code smell.*

And I suspect many people will expect that std::print does something

Maybe if it had been called printfmt or something this misunderstanding
could have been avoided. Maybe that would have also left linguistic space
for my proposal as a separate overload set.
