Let me strongly disagree. Language feature should never be
introduced
where library solution is possible.
Absolutes are difficult positions in language design.
This is why I used should and not must.
And library solution is possible. And opDispatch makes it
possible.
Problem is, a lot of code would need to add opDispatch. I don't
think that's good language design.
Not at all, you can provide one via UFCS.
