Looks like you haven't used `-vcg-ast` either.
If you do you'll see what's going on.

Some of these can be replaced with CTFE.
Generally only things that need to work on template parameter 
lists are forced to be templates.

Well and legitimate type parameterization of course.
But those are the minority.

If the template sounds like a question about a type,
Like (CharTypeof or isIntegral) it probably should not be a 
template.
