From the proposal, I see a bunch of new keywords and rules - alright given the language's heritage. But what happens if I "relocate" a variable value - would a "shell" remain or how exactly C++ is supposed to handle this:

  auto value = create_value();
  if (some_cond) {
    consume_value(std::move(value)); // not sure whether it's move here, but I guess my point is clear
  }

  use_value(value);

My assumption is that this would produce a compiler error. Depending on whether or not the branch is taken, you would essentially be accessing an uninitialized value. Compilers already catch this type of case.
