The problem with most new features in the standard is that they are so complicated and tough to implement that it takes ages leading to the current situation where there are features already planned for c++26 while compilers barely support c++20.

It's even worse that for embedded stuff it takes even longer for these modern compilers to be included in the toolchains etc. For example at work we are looking forward to being able to use GCC 13 later this year so we can use some features that were lacking in the GCC 11.3 we are using currently.

I don't think we can expect modules to be widely adopted before like 2026-38.

Yeah. Does gp not use C++? No new feature gets support in like less than 4 years. :p And I don't think that's a bad thing unless it's replacing a premature abomination feature released too soon, like `auto_ptr`. That's getting removed entirely soon; imagine if it were harder to do that because it got adopted faster and so much code relied on it that WG21 decided to keep it in "deprecated" limbo forever.

Also, we're on GCC 8! TnT '17 is the highest it can go.
