I admit, I lolled.

However, I think it's better to go way over the top than (say) to support 
operator overloading without supporting literal overloading. The ability to 
define "*" on complex numbers without the ability to write complex numbers 
inline is understandable but feels kludgey to me.

(Yes, I know for a great many types you can essentially write them inline in 
C++. I'm not necessarily talking about C++.)
