In addition to the implicit conversion. Desired use case is for types where we still want to have a conversion for convenience purposes, but the conversion is potentially dangerous (such as Magnum's Vector3i -> Size3D).

In addition to the implicit conversion. Desired use case is for types where we still want to have a conversion for convenience purposes, but the conversion is potentially dangerous (such as Magnum's
Vector3i->Size3D).Fails to compile on MSVC 2019 and earlier due to the compiler thinking the two constructors / conversion operators are the same. 2022 works; all other compilers including GCC 4.8 work as well. The seemingly-conflicting overload is based on the answers in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14600201/why-should-i-avoid-stdenable-if-in-function-signatures, there isn't any indication of MSVC being the odd one out.
