Research direction
Reproduce the report in example.cpp using the supplied Windows GCC configuration and compare the result with the Godbolt example. Start by reviewing lslogging.txt and the IntelliSense error for the template code. Done means the code continues to compile and IntelliSense no longer reports an error for this reproducer.
