The motivation section needs to cut to the chase. Start off with something =
like,

=E2=80=9CMSVC optimizes certain member pointer types, but this is not confo=
rming as some functionality is sacrificed. The optimization should be allow=
ed by the standard. A new type is proposed to make up the difference in fun=
ctionality, which has only niche use-cases.=E2=80=9D

Just focus on human readability first, and completeness of your specificati=
on second. There=E2=80=99s a long way to go before it needs standardese.
