I didn't read your entire post as it's not necessary.

Anyway, it makes sense to do in place initialisation for limited types
as they cannot be copied, therefore a return statement that copies the
object just doesn't make sense whereas one which copies a non-limited
type does.

Obviously there is overhead in the non-limited case but what you have
to understand is that in the limited case it's more semantics and
making sure that the language doesn't create copies for them.
