Not really related to this revision, but it would probably help to do some renaming/aliasing to facilitate that view. Right now, the number of `SmallVector<T, 0>` uses in LLVM is really small compared to the `std::vector<T>` uses (100 vs 6000 based on a not very accurate grep). I think part of that is in the name, and calling it `using Vector<T> = SmallVector<T, 0>` and `using VectorImpl<T> = SmallVectorImpl<T>` would make it a lot more obvious that this is our preferred general purpose vector type, even if the stored data is not small.


Those aliases SGTM.
