Truth be told, though, the error message was very unhelpful
about it. It
just says no templates were matched, no indication about the
fact that
the problem was caused by mismatched type lengths.
Well, I'm not sure how we could fix that. That's a general
problem with template constraints. You know that they aren't
passing, but you don't know _why_ they aren't passing. Though
maybe in this case, the docs could be improved to make it clearer
that if you're getting compilation errors, there's a decent
chance that you got the type sizes wrong.
