Review Comment:
   Thanks :). This really works! Benchmark result from my dev machine:
   ```
   cast string view to string
                           time:   [62.413 µs 62.644 µs 62.960 µs]
                           change: [-11.209% -10.902% -10.567%] (p = 0.00 < 
0.05)
                           Performance has improved.
   Found 6 outliers among 100 measurements (6.00%)
     3 (3.00%) high mild
     3 (3.00%) high severe
   ```
