Proposed resolution:

This wording is relative to N4842.

1. Modify [span.cons] paragraphs 6 and 9 as indicated:

   [Drafting note:

   1. The missing paragraph number of the Preconditions element at p7/p8 has already been reported as editorial issue

   2. The effective change to "Throws: Nothing." in p6 has already been applied editorially.

   -5- Effects: Initializes data_ with to_address(first) and size_ with count.

   -6- Throws: When and what to_address(first) throwsNothing.

The fixed wording in [span.cons] p9 depends on the no-throw-guarantee of integer-class conversions to integral types. This guarantee is specified by LWG 3367.

[ 2020-01-14 Status set to Tentatively Ready after ten positive votes on the reflector. ]

[span.cons] paragraphs 6 and 9:

Throws: When and what to_address(first) throws.

could equivalently be "Throws: Nothing." since all overloads of std::to_address are noexcept. However, paragraph 9 fails to account for the fact that paragraph 8:

Effects: Initializes data_ with to_address(first) and size_ with last - first.

must evaluate last - first.
