Two convergent observations from my corner of the C++ world:
1. Multiple book authors pushing the idea that Scott Meyers’ original phrase “universal reference” (for

) is actually preferable to the now-Standard term “forwarding reference.”
2. Multiple C++ learners (or perhaps intermediate-level C++ programmers having a senior moment) asking whether there’s an easy way to pass an rvalue expression to a function expecting a const lvalue reference.
