IMO there is a (much) bigger task hiding here, which is to audit every type in 
the codebase whose name contains the string "Iterator" and compare them to the 
C++20 Ranges `std::forward_iterator` concept. My impression is that the vast 
majority of real-world "iterator types" are not iterators according to C++20 
Ranges, and that this can have arbitrarily weird effects when you mix them with 
the C++20 STL.

However, that is //massive// scope creep re this particular patch. I think the 
larger question of "do all our iterators need X / are all our iterators written 
wrong" should be scoped-outside-of this patch.
