No one would use it. It's a design flaw of C++ that performant, generic libraries require arcane magic and hideously obfuscated code.


Please read carefully: "for educational purposes". I'm fully aware that such a library wouldn't be fit for production but it maybe would be useful for people learning generic C++ programming. Currently you have to look at Boost or any of the standard libraries and all you see are #ifdef and all the arcana and have a hard time seeing all the useful techniques.


What I meant was: no one would use it, so it'll never be created.
