 `with_result_of` can help to achieve in-place construction, effectively by deferring
 evaluation of function arguments.
+
+=== `unary_plus`
+
+`unary_plus` is a function object like
+https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/functional/negate.html[`std::negate`],
+except it calls (unary) `operator+` instead of `operator-`.
+
+It also has a specialization for `void` which is _transparent_ like that of
+https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/functional/negate_void.html[`std::negate`].
