    I don’t understand why this is called a “subset”, while clearly containing new syntax

    A subset would be understood by older compilers, this is a superset

      The goal of this proposal is to advance a superset of C++ with a rigorously safe subset.

      The subset is of the proposed syntax superset. Reason being because the superset also contains explicitly unsafe syntax similar to rust.
