What's baffling to me is why even declare a function pointer
parameter as auto-ref? I don't use floating point to index
strings, either, that doesn't mean floating point is a failed
concept.
That's not what he's talking about. My understanding is that Manu
is talking about something like this:
void foo(auto ref someConcreteType) { ... }
auto fooP = &foo; //error, foo is not a function
