What private device members ... the pieces you fill in are the public
ones. If you want a macro to do that, I'm sure Greg would be
amenable ...

Because you have to type six more lines of code? To me it looks cleaner
because there's only a single allocation instead of two and now no need
of chaining destructors because everything goes together thus making the
lifetime rules more obvious and robust.
It also saves memory because it has two fewer pointers.
