in [stmt.return]/2 we have the following example

std::pair<std::string,int> f(const char* p, int x) { return {p,x}; }

It's not all that clear what this example is meant to demonstrate. Can we add some sort of an explanation?

It looks like the example refers to the following parts of the preceding note: "can involve invocation of a constructor" and "if its type differs".

Maybe a comment like // invokes the constructor std::string::string would improve the example?

Editorial meeting: Example does not seem to be useful. Strike it.
