Funnily enough, sufficiently enough of C++ is constexpr-able that it was the driving force for compile-time reflection in C++[1], which is not unlike what the author has done.
Although the new syntax is much more readable than what the author chose to do with expression templates, it's still annoying, as is much of C++. But I still like it, so I am decidedly Stockholmed.
