Description
ISO have pointed out that the note "This Clause does not cover concepts that affect only a single part of the language. Such concepts are discussed in the relevant Clauses." in [basic.pre] is too vague.
We could either remove the note, or change "relevant clauses" to something more specific:
- "subsequent clauses"
- "clause 7 through clause 15"
Thoughts?
The latter is perhaps what we mean, but a tiny bit harder to maintain long-term. But if we don't want to include the library in this consideration, then it seems preferable.
