You have a point here. I don't need the fully fledged container
semantics for my use case. Maybe I should just static_assert its
value_type to be POD and implement it with an array.

Right, and in such places the size of the size member is usually
irrelevant. Anyway it would not hurt to statically select the size
member type by the max size template parameter in order to cover a use
case like mine.
