As per the comments to that change, it’s a) not going to fly and b) not the choice a single person can make, even if that person is the maintainer of Qt Core :) A more pragmatic and scalable choice seems to be to not try to support mixing C++ versions in a static build of Qt. I see no reason for doing that, and explicitly disallowing that option would create clarity for anyone trying to do so.
