This is more of a demonstration anyway. It isn't a serious piece of software.
Of course we can nitpick.

[C++] bask in my awesomeness.
There's a difference between just nitpicking and being a dick while nitpicking. You either don't know or care where the line between the two is.

It may also be that some of the ironic sentiment of the whole thing is lost in translation (to French).
Still, it took me a long time to shake off that "way less awesome than you think" jab.
I showed your library to some senior programmers as an awesome example of abusing of operator overloading, and one thought that "std::cout << doc << '\n';" was the scary part...

"senior" according to who? :)
Actually, this isn't very far off from the kind of thing you find in boost, except it's much more primitive.
It's not really abuse in my book.
Presenting it as an awesome piece of magic obscure and obfuscated code gives bad reputation to C++ DSEL programming.
