The worst that can happen by specifying sequentially consistent is a performance penalty. The worst that can happen when you specify a more relaxed ordering than you meant to have is that your code is subtly wrong. Worst of all, if you test it on a strongly ordered architecture such as x86, it's likely to work — and then subtly fail when you port it to something like ARM.

Ouch! TIL indeed!
Thanks!

I got confused for a second. It's been a while since I used atomic_fetch_add/atomic_fetch_sub. Is the default relax order relaxed?

If I understand correctly, what I really want is memory_order_seq_cst, which is then the order that is used by _Atomic(XXX), which also has a nicer syntax.
