Of course you could also just write assembly if you wanted the exact most optimized machine code.

It’s also hard to generalize these things in the form of those kinds of macros. Whereas with something like Eigen, just write your code like normal, you don’t have to worry about the special cases, and the compiler rewrites it for you. That’s one of the nice benefits, one of many, of metaprogramming.
