It seems it's going to become easier to check them in C++26 with https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/numeric/add_sat and friends. Or if you want saturating integer types, you can find https://github.com/StefanHamminga/saturating (granted this does not seem maintained) or https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/master/libs/safe_numerics/doc... from boost for a checked integer type. https://github.com/mbeutel/slowmath gives you exception throwing checking.

I haven't tried that style in Rust—or in C++ for that matter—but is it truly much nicer than the options available for C++? Perhaps out-of-the-box experience is the winner there.
