It is probably not a good idea to bring more attention to it…
some might end up agreeing with Stroustrup.
"static if" is a troubled construct and too close to macros to be
a good language design feature, it is in the same bag as string
mixins. "if(constexpr…)" + concepts etc better fit C++.

Yes, this a better idea. Write code examples that compare common
C++ patterns to D where D looks cleaner.
