I think you went a little further in that section and made

No. auto ref is only for templates. This is a bug and should
not compile.
An auto ref function does not need to be a template because the
ref-ness does not depend on how it's called.

Well today I learned this. But it is true for auto ref params.
Still, the op code compiling is a bug as the return value is not
an rvalue.
