If parameters are 'in' or 'const' by default, then whether they are
passed by value or by ref has no consequence, I guess. The compiler can
then safely choose the most efficent more --what it can do as it knows
sizeof-- grossly structs by ref, the rest by value. Is this reasoning
correct?
This kind of design decisions, leaving this responsibility to compiler is
very wrong.
Also, you are introducing a lock in here, no way to do the opposite.
"T& a" "ref T a" are very good tools. You can't always assume compiler
always knows the best.
"If parameters are in or const" what about if not? Another inconsistency
and a quite a bad one at it.
