I agree.  And unlike at() vs. operator[], in this case we are moving
enforcement of the class invariants from the class itself the caller,
just to save an "if" check.

I really don't want to see a policy controlling this; rather, have
unchecked_push_back and unchecked_insert for those who need every
ounce of performance at the expense of safety.
