They have added one feature (typeof) from C23, so maybe they will add the rest when they release C++26. Or maybe they won't. Microsoft is an expert in inflicting the cruelty of providing just enough hope.

C++26? There are having issues with delivering C++23, since the whole change in security focus with Rust, Go, C#, Java first, C and C++ for existing codebases, and most likely one of the reasons Herb Sutter is no longer at Microsoft.

Yup, we are never getting C23. Good thing C11 is decent enough, I guess.
