You can define your own concepts. What is your point?

I haven't seen an example yet, where concepts weren't simpler and easier to read/understand than SFINAE shenanigans.

Not only can you define concepts, it is highly entertaining and educational. You can write a concept that makes a function only available on Tuesdays, for example.
