    From my discussion with C++ folk, auto is just part of the “modern” way of doing c++. Paired with the -> return type. Perhaps including that -> return type negates this problem? It’s still strange to me. Feels more like Rust

      One day the use of auto will grow so extensive that modern Python code will have more type annotations than modern C++ code!
