Reflection syntax (C++26 I think) has made my 30+ years-of-C++ brain melt.

It's not insane, it's just ... melt-inducing.

Yeah, for me reflection and coroutines were the first changes to C++ where the implementation and use mechanics weren't immediately obvious by reading a few references. It requires a bit of proper study to wrap your head around it.
I agree. It was the first time I actually thought 'who the hell writes code like this?'
