Please review the " temporary storage class specifiers" and "C++ is the next C++" attachment. It could be the avenue of making some of these changes in the language. It is an example of changing one of C++ defaults. It provides the means to have the change now for those who need and want it and a path for those who can't to migrate over to the new default.

Yeah I agree with that, in a way to make C++ stricter, safer and simpler. I would add also: "return of reference to local variables":

int & foo()

{

    int i;

    return i;

}

Apparently this issue is not even detected by Visual Studio C++ in 2022.

But again, C++ needs to be simplified, not made more complex, or else it's a "time bomb" for C++ quite simply.

Regards,
