I've already been doing that: Since doing most of the language work on this in 2015-16, every evolution proposal paper I've brought to ISO C++, and every conference talk I've given, has come from this work... only until now I've shown them as standalone C++ evolution proposals under today's syntax. +This my own personal set of experiments, and as parts may work out I'll continue to bring those results to ISO C++ as proposals: Most of the language design you will see here I did in 2015-16, and since then every evolution proposal paper I've brought to ISO C++, and every conference talk I've given, has come from this work and just been presented as a standalone proposal under today's syntax. -I'm sharing this work because I hope to start a conversation about what could be possible _**within C++**_’s own evolution to rejuvenate C++. For now this is my personal project for my own use and experimentation, to learn some things, proof out some concepts, and share some ideas. It's currently still hilariously incomplete (e.g., as of this writing, there's no support for classes(!) and I just started implementing a basic `inspect` statement along the lines I [presented at CppCon 2021](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raB_289NxBk) and in [P2392](https://wg21.link/p2392)). This is a work in progress, that will keep evolving or will fail, and either way will generate data... this is how experiments work. I'm sharing this to show my work, and to try to get others thinking about what could be possible in C++ itself. +I'm sharing this work because I hope to start a conversation about what could be possible _**within C++**_’s own evolution to rejuvenate C++.

It's currently still hilariously incomplete (e.g., as of this writing, there's no support for classes!). This is one of many experiments going on across the industry looking at ways to accomplish a major C++ evolution. What makes this experiment different from the others? Two main things...
