For this case it'd be justified (it even has lambdas!). TMP is great for data-centric code though, like math algorithms or data structure definitions with optimizations conditional on type traits.

Friends don't let friends program in C++ :) I'm holding out for Rust. Every now and then I think I should go native, then I try it and my productivity goes out of the window :/
