If you want to keep things simpler and you prefer a safer enhancement (tha

Hmm, iota with FP gets tricky, because, for example, 0.1 does not have an exact
representation in floating-point. So if you write iota(0.0, 1.0, 0.1), it's
unclear whether 1

Another use case:
auto lazy_lower_case = iota!"[]"('a', 'z');
Currently you should use this that is much less handy (and it doesn't work for
other reasons):
iota('a', '{'
