Please don't say "clearly" here. Assignability is the default in C++,
and it's quite possible that our implementations stumbled into it
without actually having a firm use case. It would take actual research
to determine that we have a real need. (I suspect we do, but my
suspicion doesn't prove anything, and I'm not currently planning to
investigate in detail.)
