Purpose of having std:less (or similar function) while it just call < operator
Why is std::less (and equivalent other function object) are needed when it just calls < operator and we can anyways overload operators?
Possible answer is in question:
Why is std::less better than "<"?
However I am not totally convinced (specially about weak ordering). Can someone explain a bit more ?
