Keyword "inline" has sound like [in lieing] (gerund of verb "lie")
. We have to be careful with everything what Stroustrup invented.
The gerund of lie is lying. It's in an irregular verb

but I see what you mean and I like your jokes. I actually think that
inline was first in C or, who knows, maybe even in some assembly extension, but it's fine, we need to be careful about Stroustrup indeed
