Thank you! This is a complicated patch but it ends up simplifying our `tuple` implementation quite a bit. Thanks for the great testing coverage. too.

In that case, the fact that you changed the order of checking will cause you to instantiate the conversion operator before the constructor, and explode. If you had checked for the constructibility first, you'd have gotten a false answer and stopped there, instead of being tripped up by the hard error later on while trying to check whether the constructor should be explicit or not.

I remember breaking `nlohmann::json` with a change a couple years ago -- it wasn't fun. I'm not sure whether it ended up being our fault our theirs, but regardless, we want to be bullet proof to avoid breaking widely used libraries, because we look like jokers when that happens :-).

However, it doesn't seem to apply anymore, but it would be nice to ensure that we don't trip over a type `T` where `is_constructible<T, U>::value` is false, but where `is_convertible<T, U>::value` is a hard error (by defining a conversion operator from `U` to `T` that causes a hard error). Let me know if you think this doesn't make sense, it might be impossible to actually trigger this issue but I'd need to dive deeper to be certain.
> hmm. IIUC, `is_constructible` also looks for conversion operator. If a conversion operator from `U` to `T` causes a hard error, both `is_convertible` and `is_constructible` would cause hard error. or, did I miss anything?
I think you're right.

Can you please make sure you have newlines at the end of files?

Why does it fail on GCC?
