Can you please post a canonical 99% use case that you use? I cannot suggest an
alternative otherwise. I need to understand what coding problem you have been
solving with default args.
For example, the basic use case of default args is just a shorthand for doing
function overloads:
int foo(int a = 5) { ... }
becomes:
int foo(int a) { ... }
int foo() { return foo(5); }
Many use cases involving templates can be resolved by using alias template
parameters.
But I don't know what your use cases are.
