I agree it's prudent to establish a confirmed direction for reusing `__bf16` to implement `std::bfloat16_t` as an arithmetic type before proceeding. If we decide to take this route, I understand that we'll be looking towards a change that aligns "bf16" names more closely with "bfloat16". In the meantime, I will revert to my initial change in D149573 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D149573> which repurposed `__bf16` type, and present it for further discussion. This, along with a summary of the RFC discussion, should help us reach a consensus. I welcome any further insights or considerations you might think pertinent to this process.
