One change left, then I think we're ready to rock! I'm going to conditionally LGTM it on my proposed change, but please ping me on Discord if you want to discuss my proposed change (we can move back here for the actual discussion, but Discord ping > email ping in terms of responsiveness due to Phab latency).

Comment at: libcxx/include/__ranges/range_adaptor.h:60-61

+    [[nodiscard]] _LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI
----------------
```
constructible_from<decay_t<_Closure>, _Closure> &&
constructible_from<decay_t<_OtherClosure>, _OtherClosure>
```
should be rewritten as
```
move_constructible<decay_t<_Closure>> && move_constructible<decay_t<_OtherClosure>>
```
but I don't think that's what we want anyway.

Let's keep it at `invocable` for now, and if I can come up with a proof before the branch point, we can change it then.

If we have two closures `Closure1 c1` and `Closure2 c2`, `c1 | c2` could use either the `operator|(Closure1, auto)` injected by `__range_adaptor_closure<Closure1>`, or the `operator|(Closure2, auto)` injected by `__range_adaptor_closure<Closure2>`. I don't see an easy way to solve that problem.

I don't think there's a lot you'll need to do to integrate it: just decorations and seeing if your existing concepts have a mapping (I couldn't see it: from what I could tell, we need both yours and mine).

In other words, I thought hidden friends were injected in the enclosing namespace and from then on always considered for overload resolution, but that's not the case. TIL!

> Yep — that's the "hidden" part of "hidden friend idiom". :)  The names are "hidden" from ordinary lookup, and findable only via ADL.  This generally has exactly the effect you thought was going to happen the other way around: hidden friends //shrink// the overload set and thus produce //shorter// error messages, whereas "un-hiding" things tends to //grow// the overload set and produce //longer// candidate lists in error messages.
> https://quuxplusone.github.io/blog/2020/12/09/barton-nackman-in-practice/  is highly relevant. (So is a lot of the stuff in https://quuxplusone.github.io/blog/tags/#argument-dependent-lookup generally.)
Great, I think we have synergy on this topic! As an aside, I'd like to write a paper proposing turning all stdlib operators as free functions into hidden friends, but that requires a lot of time that I don't have.

I have a bad feeling about the diagnostics this is gonna produce. Hopefully I'm wrong.
