+// move_only_function design:
+//
+// move_only_function has a small buffer with a size of `3 * sizeof(void*)` 
bytes. This buffer can only be used when the
+// object that should be stored is trivially relocatable (currently only when 
it is trivially move constructible and
+// trivially destructible). There is also a bool in the lower bits of the vptr 
stored which is set when the contained
+// object is not trivially destructible.
+//
+// trivially relocatable: It would also be possible to store 
nothrow_move_constructible types, but that would mean
+// that move_only_function itself would not be trivially relocatable anymore. 
The decision to keep move_only_function
+// trivially relocatable was made because we expect move_only_function to be 
mostly used to store a functor. To only
+// forward functors there is std::function_ref (not voted in yet, expected in 
C++26).
+//
+// buffer size: We did a survey of six implementations from various vendors. 
Three of them had a buffer size of 24 bytes
+// on 64 bit systems. This also allows storing a std::string or std::vector 
inside the small buffer (once the compiler
+// has full support of trivially_relocatable annotations).
+//
+// trivially-destructible bit: This allows us to keep the overall binary size 
smaller because we don't have to store
+// a pointer to a noop function inside the vtable. It also avoids loading the 
vtable during destruction, potentially
+// resulting in fewer cache misses. The downside is that calling the function 
now also requires setting the lower bits
+// of the pointer to zero, but this is a very fast operation on modern CPUs.

Does the same also apply for `function_ref`? Should it be possible to turn a 
`move_only_function` / `copyable_function` into a `function_ref` without 
double-wrapping?
