There's nothing in C++20 that would allow us to design APIs differently.

You may be thinking of C++23 "using enum" feature, which is barely supported 
anywhere and doesn't help us in any way I can see. It might allow us in the 
future to change our existing unscoped enums to scoped, but until then there's 
little we ca do.

So this question is strictly a C++11 scoped enum one.
