I don’t hate this! The author is, despite their sarcasm, correct—sometimes integers are insufficiently expressive. It’s the C++ equivalent of geometry in the Wolfram Language.

This could potentially be extended to UML diagrams to express program logic (or at least to generate SVG versions).

Truly marvellous!

Whaaaaat? Jesus! Some people are just too creative; i am almost afraid to test out the code.
