It is not so much that they look difficult, if you are used to 
functional programming then it is passable, but most C++ 
programmers are not used to functional programming.

If you want to have it, then it should work with all sequences, 
because if you almost never use them then you will simply not 
remember what they do (which one is left fold, which one is right 
fold?)

Adding a single functional programming mechanism in a remote 
corner of the language is just a hack, not a real solution.
