You can continue working in a world without the small string optimization if you want. There is already precedent.

I want a world where the compiler knows when it can use that optimization instead of me bludgeoning it with a global define.

It’s a library feature not as compiler feature so you can’t really get out of telling the compiler which library to use, Eben if what you say is nothing (meaning “default library”)
