But the examples you presented of downsides are not applicable. If hash2
wants to encode buffer size in the interface then there are tradeoffs, but
span can accommodate to those. Claims of span not being compatible with
simd or other optimisations are just not the case. So the downsides
mentioned pretty much are no applicable as opposed to any alternative.
