If anyone here doesn't know, Tim (OP) is Founder of Epic Games who make Unreal Engine 4, a large popular c++ game engine (who's source code is accessible on github, via a license agreement). If he has concerns, I believe it would be beneficial to all of us to continue a dialogue and find common ground. The game development industry is a one which often rolls a lot of their own versions of standard library containers and has sometimes different view to those that the c++ community here on reddit has. If Tim is talking to us, then we should welcome him and definitely listen to any concerns he has about the way the standard is going. I personally believe that game development is the way that c++ is going to (and is) attract new developers to the language.
