--- Comment #2 from Richard Smith <richard-llvm at metafoo.co.uk> ---
Clang is correct: this capture is not needed according to the rules of the C++
standard. See: https://godbolt.org/z/1h88Kf8dE

Because the reference is initialized by a constant expression, the use of the
reference is required by the C++ standard to (effectively) be rewritten to its
initializer, so the capture is unnecessary and will never actually be used.

In the case where the reference is initialized from a conditional expression,
the initializer is no longer a constant expression, so the rewrite doesn't
happen and a capture is required.
