Firstly, this note on the purpose of 'int' was removed in
https://github.com/cplusplus/draft/pull/8448

Secondly, can you stop spamming this mailing list with quarter-baked,
low-quality content almost every day? The suggestion to "deprecate int" is
just the tip of the iceberg. And sure, I guess the title is just clickbait,
but the suggestion to standardize a typedef intptr_t int_t; alias is only
of slightly greater quality than what's suggested in the title.

I've never seen you actually follow up on something you've suggested here,
irrespective of people's feedback, which is almost always negative. All you
do is waste people's time and misuse the mailing list for your personal
entertainment, or as some kind of personal blog.
