White space does matter in C23

C++ has some contextual keywords as well:

  final (C++11)
  override (C++11)
  import (C++20)
  module (C++20)

But did they make those contextual in order to avoid conflicts with code that had existing identifiers before the new keyword was specified?

C# is probably the king of contextual keywords, they have tens of them. They started I believe with `yield return` and `yield break` and then added all of the LINQ ones (select, from, where etc), and kept adding others (notnull, record, required, etc).
