Discussion:

This is from editorial issue #1031.

The first row in Table 112 "Position type requirements" talks about the expression P(i) and then has an assertion p == P(i). However, there are no constraints on p other than being of type P, so (on the face of it) this seems to require that operator== on P always returns true, which is non-sensical.
