Description Christoph Hertzberg 2019-04-15 20:53:07 UTC
There was an issue reported here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55684031/eigen-returning-pointer-with-unaryexpr

IMO, the use-case is rather borderline, but I don't think that not removing pointers within our result_of implementation would break anything.
But I'd be ok with WONTFIX here as well.

There is indeed no reason to remove pointer qualifier.
