There are some on P5P suggesting that smartmatch is so broken it
should
be removed entirely.
That was the impression I got from the sparse details in the 5.18
announcement and what worried me more than anything else was precisely
that uncertainty.
That there is no consensus that at least some of smart match and thus,
given/when, can be considered non-experimental (and thus safe to use in
production) means that a lot of application and library code may have to
be rewritten at some point but nobody is really able to definitively
determine what the scale of that risk is.
Certainly we can continue to declare use experimental and things will
continue to work but that is a risky strategy.
