The language is already littered with these "the compiler shall insert" and then a reference to the STANDARD LIBRARY FEATURE N.X. Which means if you're compiling in a freestanding environment half the time you'll get linker errors such as "couldn't find symbol whatever". And what's worse the compiler inserts a call to a function that is LITERALLY STD NAMESPACED. Meaning you have to provide that signature yourself. See how std vector is hardcoded into compare/meta and I can't remember what else.

This then forces developers to create undefined behaviour because according to the standard you can't namespace std your own functions even though it's required to get it to work.
