Problem: - `ct` must use a function template to obtain overloads for both type template parameters and NTTPs. However when using `ct` with an NTTP placeholder type there is an ambiguity if the NTTP is not deduced: e.g. if a non-deduced `ct_string` is passed, both the `auto` overload and the `ct_string` overloads match. Solution: - Introduce another NTTP placeholder type, `ct_helper` that can be partially specialized (without definition) to disable the primary template specialization.
