namespace hana = boost::hana;

int main()
{
    int x = 1;
    int y = 2;
    int z = 3;

    std::tuple<int&, int&, int&> refs {x, y, z};
    auto ref_drop = boost::hana::drop_front(refs);

    x = 10;
    y = 20;
    z = 30;

    std::cout << x << " " << y << " " << z << std::endl;
    std::cout << std::get<0>(refs) << " " << std::get<1>(refs) << " " << std::get<2>(refs) << std::endl;
    std::cout << std::get<0>(ref_drop) << " " << std::get<1>(ref_drop) << std::endl;
}

The output of the above code is:

10 20 30
10 20 30
2 3

Expected output is:

10 20 30
10 20 30
20 30

I would expect if I pass boost::hana::drop_front a std::tuple<T&, U&, V&> to get back a std::tuple<U&, V&> but instead I get a std::tuple<U, V>. This is unexpected. Is this intended behavior?
