>>this removal would only make sense if you already had a provably superior replacement.
There already is a superior replacemenmt -- its the functions in stdio.h. There are a few (very few) things I like about iostreams but for the most part fprintf() is a lot easier to use.

Boost.Format maybe? :)

#include <iostream>

#include <boost/format.hpp>

int main() {
    int age = 17;
    std::cout << boost::format( "%d years old!" ) % age << std::endl;
    
    double amt = 42.1294;
    std::cout << boost::format( "$%.2lf" ) % amt << std::endl;
    
    std::cout << boost::format( "%1% %2% %2% %1%" ) % "a" % "b" << std::endl;
}

17 years old!
$42.13
a b b a

I just started teaching myself O'Caml :)

let rec range s f =
    if s > f then []
    else s :: range (s + 1) f ;;

let count s f = 
    List.iter (fun i -> Printf.printf "%d " i) (range s f)  ;;

count 1 10 ;;
