I have Design Opinions (better than yours)
I am sorry to inform you that it was #include "assert.h" with a lot of instrumentation for ubsan, asan etc./

I know you've considered this already but possibly you dismissed it too fast: Would it work to compile from source?

I've solved... remarkably many problems this way and, surprisingly, not actually broken anything (This is not because I'm a gentoo fiend, I'm on casual Pop!_OS)

What I'm trying to say is "Please please I want a built-in slice type."

(I want a built-in slice type in C++ too but I'm *almost* ok with itr pairs and/or std::span)

Fun fact: As a challenge I wrote an entire slice library without testing it until the whole thing was done, then ran it through sanitizers to see how many errors would have slipped through.

It was a *fantastic* library.

It was *absolutely useless* because C invariants are fake.

I hate it here

Not necessarily, neh? I hope we're not expecting decency from a journalist.

Not in particular but if you'd care to share, I'll look and see if there's anything that immediately scares me away.

Best I can do is a free function in <algorithm> that takes a back inserter.

Funny, I was looking into this very thing earlier today. I didn't dig deep but the very very top overview was "faster than C++ because pointers aren't allowed to alias, better than C because arrays aren't nonsense."

And then I stopped digging because "yeah that seems plausible."
