Here is an example of the mess: I have a benchmark of various maps in freepascal. The benchmark creates strings of random bytes to use as keys. A classic key-value store is the sorted TStringList. Now the benchmark of the TStringList fails

I wrote games when I was around 10 years old. I was very proud when I figured out how to calculate if two axis-aligned rectangles intersect. The most complex equation I knew then, and I did not have internet to look it up.

You can remove the first k elements of a view with data += k. With the length you would need to do data += k; length -= k Especially if you want to use it as safe iterator, you can do data++ in a loop
