You're making a very compelling argument. Actually strong enough that it makes me want the uniform call syntax when I was previously on the fence about that feature.

I'm generally not in favor of adding stuff to C++. What's the upside in this case? To be able to say p.do_something() instead of do_something(p), because the latter offends Java programmers? :)

The upside is not writing some calls one way and others the other way on the same object, and having to remember which is which.

So, don't use the dot syntax. :)

Not all functions can be non-members.
