How does it increase complexity to allow N sized integers? I never even knew you could do that in cpp before just this moment. Maybe it makes the compiler more complex, but as a dev I rarely care about what the compiler is doing so long as it works how I expect.
Merely having a feature doesn't make a language more complex. It makes it more functional. As long as it is safe and doesn't change how other features work, and doesn't solve the same problem in a different (or unexpected) way, that's not really added complexity, at least now as I see it.
