I completely agree. Let the boost versions 1.74, 1.75, 1.76 etc
remain C++Old compliant, and can be maintained as long as one wishes
to maintain it. And start the 2.00, 2.01, 2.02 boost releases
versioning which takes a new breath by fully utilizing the new C++20 features.

No workarounds broken compilers is also a good idea.
