First idea was to just reuse/mimic as much as possible from
boost/std::array, including the syntax (just add more commas and numbers
inside <> to get more dimensions), and also to keep the curly
initialization working.
I never considered using the view you propose, I presume C++23? std::mdspan
is a similar thing, but it obviously does not own the data.
