But more significantly, it seems like it cannot conceivably be true. If might be "At most one additional item from EACH of the iterators." If I do zip_strict(a, b, c, d, e) and "e" is the one that is shorter, how could any algorithm ever avoid consuming one extra item of a, b, c, and d each?! -- The dead increasingly dominate and strangle both the living and the not-yet born.
