You keep implying that not using Hana is a choice done for irrational reasons such as, for instance, "avoiding a dependency", rather than, for instance, being forced by the fact that Hana does not compile on MSVC.
That might be a reasonable argument if Yap itself were not a C++14 library. According the hana Jamfile, the reason hana is not supported for msvc is cxx14_constexpr, which Yap also uses.
Yes. In fact, as part of an attempt to get MSVC support to work months ago, I tried transliterating the Hana code that choked MSVC with something equivalent and hand-written, and ran into the same problems. It's MSVC, not Hana, that doesn't work. Zach
