Examples of MPL metafunctions include
mpl::find_if
mpl::equal
mpl::advance
...and so on
While the metafunction result is of course accessed via the nested
::type, I think you can see none of these names have _t suffixes.
In fact, the only types in MPL with _t suffixes are those that wrap
preexisting types with such a suffix (e.g., mpl::size_t).
