Variadic templates c++17

Hi, I have been stuck on actually reversing the order of the sequences of exponents of 2 below for quite some time now. I hope someone is able to help. So, I should get an output from 1, 2, 4, 8.. etc. Not the reverse. Note: All of the meta() functions must be retained in the program below. Cannot remove!

Can I have an understanding of why my program results in this specific error
"Error C1202 recursive type or function dependency context too complex"
What does it mean? And how do I solve it?

Are you taking a class, @sparki? I've never seen this stuff taught by an instructor.

Your first post builds the sequence correctly, but prints it in reverse.
Using the code in your first post, correct the problem by swapping line 32 and 33.

A multi-templated/variadic/multi-method/recursive structure and program is no mean feat. :)
