What do you think about `returning a const reference parameter may cause a 
use-after-free when the parameter is constructed from a temporary` (`const` vs 
`constant` argument in the other thread aside)

I'm not sure if it should be `may` or `will`, because it is only a 
use-after-free if the returned value is actually used (FWICT).
