> C++20 is just a new version of the C++ standard.
and per ISO rules, older versions are withdrawn (as can be confirmed for C++ here: https://www.iso.org/standard/79358.html https://www.iso.org/standard/79358.html) and not to be used anymore: https://www.iso.org/files/live/sites/isoorg/files/store/en/PUB100413.pdf https://www.iso.org/files/live/sites/isoorg/files/store/en/P...
Other reasons why a committee may decide to propose a standard for withdrawal include the following :
▸ ▸ the standard does not reflect current practice or research
▸ ▸ it is not suitable for new and existing applications (products,
systems or processes)
▸ ▸ it is not compatible with current views and expectations
regarding quality, safety and the environment
