>Hold on. This wasn't a wrapper around a loop pattern - this was a first-class atomic operation, sitting right there next to fetch_add and fetch_or. Java doesn't have this. C++ doesn't have this. How could Rust just... have this? C++26 (work-in-progress) does have std::atomic<T>::fetch_max . Not implemented in any toolchains yet, though. https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/atomic/atomic/fetch_max https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/atomic/atomic/fetch_max https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2024/p0493r5.pdf https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2024/p04...
