My initial request was: "use version as an expression"

We are bike-shedding to a point where "just use a template from 
std bro" is what people are telling me to do instead

Where will i put all the files i copy, do i have to do that for 
every projects i will create

You can understand that that's not the path i wanted to take when 
i created this post, i expect language improvement

Same story with the .Enum thing i proposed few months ago, if i 
made it it's not to accept having to use mixing everywhere bellow 
my enums bloating the global scope

I loose hope every posts
