ok good, 'reshape' behaves as it should; but what's the rationale for not
throwing on 'iota(5).sliced(2,2) ' ?

in light of what i wrote above, it's surprising behavior and will cause bugs. What are the advantages of allowing it to not throw?

I'm not sure I understand your argument.
My problem is that iota(5) has 5 elements which is more than 2*2, so I
would expect
iota(5).sliced(2,2)
or
iota(7).sliced(2,3).sliced(1,2)
to throw, as in pretty much any other tensor library:

[...]


auto a = iota(5).sliced(5);
auto b = a.reshape(2, 2); // throws ReshapeException

Agreed. I will add optional exception (by default sliced will trow).
