The author didn't mention constexpr in C++ which tackles the same problem as Zig.

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/if#Constexpr_if

In this case, "if constexpr" does the same as Zig to conditionally disable code at compile time, albeit with worse syntax. Being able to mix comptime evaluations and non comptime evaluations in a single if is something I want in C++.

I would've appreciated more direct comparisons between Zig's comptime and C++ constexpr, given that C++ is the language everyone's trying to replace.
