Sorry, I meant to say something like, "in an alternative language, we could have ..". I agree: in C++ they are not orthogonal.
This is why I liked the idea of the pipeline operator. https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2020/p2011r1.html
I liked that proposal, but I also knew it has downsides, I presume C++ would be only mainstream language to use it, and it would be another thing almost every developer would need to learn. So not sure if it was mistake or not to reject it. My guess is that C++ would be a better language if it was accepted, unless we get UFCS.
Agreed. I only put it so that you can weigh my opinion accordingly.
I see, thank you for clarifying.
