+// Return result of calling .data() method on type T. This is used to be able to
+// write template deduction guides for the single-parameter Span constructor
+// below that will work if the value that is passed has a .data() method, and if
+// the data method does not return a void pointer.
+//
+// It is important to check for the void type specifically below, so the
+// deduction guides can be used in SFINAE contexts to check whether objects can
+// be converted to spans. If the deduction guides did not explicitly check for
+// void, and an object was passed that returned void* from data (like
+// std::vector<bool>), the template deduction would succeed, but the Span<void>
+// object instantiation would fail, resulting in a hard error, rather than a
+// SFINAE error.
