It will be a sad day when Boost rejects a good library because another library in a different part of the design space is theoretically faster.

IMO this hits the nail on the head.

As with too many reviews, there have been very interesting, but essentially speculative, alternative ideas, produced not during the 'proposed library' development phase, but somewhat destructively and at the 'last minute'.

These should not be a reason for rejection, but should spur development of different (and hopefully in some ways better) ideas to submit in future.

I would like to second that.
