Its generally a fun read, but

> I don’t know man, why are we writing C++?

Why do you write it in a way that you even blow up the most esoteric footgun in existence?

Using temporary lifetime extension - just because it exists or what?

const int& i_am_a_ref = return_a_value() // why do you need this?????

Compiling C code with a C++ compiler - it is no secret that it only works until C89

Unnecessary template disambiguation - why not remove it when it is not necessary
