I wouldn't know. People have different needs. Builtin 
for-each-loops, threads and SIMD support are more important to me 
than iterators (ranges).

But the problem with linear algebra is that you might want to do 
SIMD optimized versions where you calculate 4 equations at the 
time, do reshuffling etc. So a library solution has to provide 
substantial benefits.
