Yes, that seems to be the reason. Note that there was also an issue about t=
hat,

http://cplusplus.github.io/LWG/lwg-closed.html#570

which was closed because of no further paper update. If you are
interested in this, I would like to encourage you to provide your own
paper update pointing to N1985 and the closed issue.
