I have not claimed “massive advantages all over the place”, I have
claimed minor advantages all over the places and massive advantages for
future API.
With that correction stated, I have already answered you that your
inability to see the benefits is only proof that your work on FFmpeg is
on areas that rarely need strings. In fact, if I remember correctly, the
last time it happened you used the worst possible implementation and we
had to be multiple persons insisting to get it fixed.
Therefore, I consider your objection to be orders of magnitude less
important than the positive feedback I finally had got from people who
do use strings routinely, who in particular have used BPrint, are
familiar with the benefits it brought but also the limitations I want to
fix.
If there are no more remarks in the next few days I will consider this
approved and start polishing the implementations.
