Description

Currently type erased Event can be default constructed but typed events can not. This makes it difficult to make something like a vector of events to record and use later. Does it make sense to allow all events to be default constructable?

Research direction

No file or test is named; start by locating the typed and type-erased Event definitions and comparing their construction paths.
