> Matrix multiplication or even worse, matrix inversion, is NOT a basic operation.
Neither is dividing floats, especially not on a softfloat & softdiv architecture. And yet, Zig is perfectly OK with you using division between 2 floats. Why does it get to insert expensive function calls behind operators but I can't?
Zig also lets you do remainder division for floats, which is also not a "basic operation." It's slower even then taking the sqrt of a float! Zig then also has specialized operators like saturating addition, which also isn't a "basic operation"
And then Zig also has `*` for array multiplication and `++` for array concatenation. Those are compile-time only, but still deviates from "basic operations only" territory surely. And also Zig overloads `||` to allow for the merging of enums (sorry, "error sets"), rather than only being a boolean OR.
