I hadn't but it would make sense for doing my own personal programming challenges.
Given the ongoing disasters around the software supply chains I've been fighting the creeping NPM-ism that people are trying to introduce to C++, where you just FetchContent 20 different libraries to build your own app upon.
I do use gtest, fmt and a few others though, so something as broadly used as Highway would probably be fine by that standard as well. But I'd still like it better if there was a Good Enough solution that was part of C++ stdlib to reduce the number of external integrations that are deemed required for a modern C++ program.
Fair point. If it helps, our security team has called Highway critical infrastructure and helped to harden the repo.
The flip side of standardization is that it would be much harder and slower to add ops as the need arises, which we do regularly.
