2023. Composite reference result type of conditional operator

Section: 7.6.16  [expr.cond]     Status: drafting     Submitter: Daniel Krügler     Date: 2014-10-16

The conditional operator converts pointer operands to their composite pointer type (7.6.16 [expr.cond] bullets 6.3 and 6.4). Similar treatment should be afforded to operands of reference type.
