I understand that some of the examples have better alternatives. What I don't
understand is why you term this as increased language complexity. This is not
one of the "why not add" kind of requests. From my point of view the
complexity is already there through U, UL, I and UI. So completing the set
with B, UB, S and US seems only logical and solves an existing (attention:
buzzword ahead) ... *inconsistency*. ;)
To cut a long story short; if I added those suffixes and made a pull request
would anyone be objected?
I'd object. I've been programming in C, C++ and D for 30 years now, and I use u
and L suffixes way less than 1% of the time, and have simply never found a use
for b or s suffixes.
I'm not convinced it solves a real problem.
