No I object to it on usability grounds. It took more than 30 years for the committee to admit it but C++ now has typesafe std::print/std::format finally, after admonishing programmers for using `printf` in C.
- gpderetta 3y agoC++ only acquired the capabilities to have a statically type safe format string only recently. Iostreams have a lot of issues, but overloading<< is a very minor one.
