auto vs auto*
When you use static_cast, wouldn't it be better to use auto instead of auto*?
auto* obj = static_cast<Class*>(object); // vs auto obj = static_cast<Class*>(object);
It would have the same result. Yes, * marks the variable as a pointer but
from the cast we can see that it is a pointer nonetheless.
