As `decay_t<_Ip>` is an iterator type, `decay_t<_Ip>(__first)` is equivalent to `static_cast<decay_t<_Ip>>(__first)`, and we don't need to change this line. But it seems that we should change the return type of this `operator()`.

I think we should try to add a test case which fails without changing the return type.
