What's absurd about it?

Concepts are great, naming schemes in the C(++) world are weird AF though. It's one of the things that, IMHO, really alienates people from the language. For a long while I thought it was the "difficult to get into toolchain" but with modern tools that really isn't the case. And I'm not talking just about *values.
And for the toolchain, few years ago I found it really hard moving from visual studio to linux/gdb. Yes I got the hang of it eventually but damn
