Hm, it looks like it is using things like std::vector and streams, etc.

So it does actually require exceptions and RTTI/still forces linkage against throwing functions, etc.

In no-exception builds, exceptions become crashes. RTTI is barely used anywhere in the STL.

As an example, Firefox uses STL without RTTI or exceptions.

Sure, if you want to be pedantic: it works without them when paired with standard implementations that can work without them
