Associated consts allows constants to be derived from our trait-constrained parametric polymorphism. C++ currently has no analog to this system (templates can be used, but don't provide a constraint system; concepts are not in C++17 afaik). At an introductory level, like this announcement, we teach this system by analogy to OO, but its not OO in its core and snide comments like this only reveal the limits of your knowledge.
