There's nothing artificial about it. Constructors are not normal functions and should not be treated as such. They're fundamentally different from normal functions. Also, in all other cases, UFCS involves using a free function as if it were a member function, so it's incredibly bizarre as well as inconsistent with the rest of UFCS to allow constructors to be used with it. - Jontahan M Davis
