[Accepted as a DR at the November, 2022 meeting.]
Subclause 9.4.1 [dcl.init.general] bullet 16.6.1 says:
[Example 2: T x = T(T(T())); calls the T default constructor to initialize x. —end example]
This is incorrect; in some situations, the default constructor is not invoked (see 9.4.1 [dcl.init.general] paragraph 9).
Proposed resolution (approved by CWG 2022-08-26):
Change in 9.4.1 [dcl.init.general] bullet 16.6.1 as follows:
[Example 2: T x = T(T(T()));calls the T default constructor to initializevalue-initializes x. —end example]
