(What I'm referring to is that the C++ standard library has a class named "stringstream" but also a class named "strstream" and they're basically the same except "strstream" crashes when you try to use it, and "strstream" isn't supposed to even *be* there it's just an early mistake that got replaced with "stringstream", but it's *still there* so if you accidentally mistype "stringstream" you will unknowingly call into existence this Thing That Should Not Be by the act of naming it)
