Hmm, I'm not sure it is completely redundant - I prefer
long_descriptive_names to short_cute_ones because it makes the code easier
to understand - even though it result in a touch more typing.

FYI All the type_traits docs are in quickbook format already, it may not be
obvious though if the sandbox versions aren't picking up the usual
stylesheets.
