    It’s nice that this exists these days, but my god is it horrendously unreadable at a glance

      It makes it look like they’re just adding random noise to avoid colliding with existing syntax. Maybe they can try a UUID next time…

        It makes perfect sense actually. I did write another comment here if you are interested.

        This is how operator overloads were written going back to the initial version of C++ back in 1985. The only new thing is that we can now add = default to get the compiler to generate a default implementation that compares all the member variables for you.
