The code on slide 6 contains an issue resp. inaccuracy: Not all random
access ranges are sliceable. Sometimes I wonder (and this is not at all
intended as a snide remark!) if it is too easy to make mistakes
regarding template constraints, if even you as the (co-?) designer of
std.range get them wrong occasionally.
In fairness, this issue is in the air at this time. We're still mulling
over on characterizing infinite ranges that offer random access.
