A comment on Killing the C++ Modules Technical Specification. Parent comment
When people talk about "C++", they may mean:
- "C++ as it theoretically could be in when C++20 or so is used pervasively"
- "C++ as it can be when certain C++17 features are used pervasively"
- "C++ as it is often used in practice today"
(and this is still oversimplifying more nuanced realities).
It's very common for people to make observations about "C++" which are wrong on one sense and right in another.
