There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think that's a redundancy / clarity improvement.

We shouldn't say "constructors and/or member functions", "functions name or member function name". or "function or constructor" etc., because
I'm not very sure of the last point. But as a constexpr constructor is considered to be a constexpr function, I think it's consistent to say a constructor is a function.
