I understand one might dislikes the stream operators due to the syntax
(myself included), but once you've used them more than once, and know
how to use them, they aren't a problem. The strong typing they provide
is simply unmatched in C++. The article even mentions that NOT using
stream operators was one of their biggest source of bugs. And Carmack
himself replies stating that in retrospect: StrongTyping > WeirdCode.
With variadic templates introduced in C++11 can't you implement a type
safe writeln or similar just like Phobos has?
