I'm getting the impression the standards committee is trying to cram too much new specifications and material into an insufficiently large time-frame.
It would be better to put the new standard version in 2022-2023.
(A lot of the new stuff touches the standard libraries in huge, deep and drastic ways.)

Going through the following blog post:
What's in C++20 and the C++17 final score card: A report from Kona and look at the Toronto C++ meeting
Posted on July 10, 2017 by Michael Wong.
Despite the lack of separate checking, I predict the current Concept will be incorporated into C++20 once all the defects are processed this year or next.
Having a guarantee certain errors or kinds of errors being caught is a wonderful thing to have in a programming language.
A pity C++20 won't have this.
Maybe they can add that feature later?

Syntax sweeteners are nice but those (very basic) standard libraries are two decades late!
Cool to finally have them, not too early.
