In the following code, what is the advantage of using &&? Code from the answer for Specialize the same operator for different properties
From this question, I understand that an argument &&means that it is a link that can be changed by a function.
decay_tprobably does not allow the compiler to interpret the reference to the variable as an array, as in What is std :: decay and when should it be used?
std::forward- perfect forwarding as described here . Why do we need this shipment?
Thank.

std::cout << val << std::endl;
}

std::enable_if_t<is_int<std::decay_t<T1>>::value, void>
operator=(T1 && input){
val = 2*std::forward<T1>(input);
}
template <typename T1>
std::enable_if_t<is_A<std::decay_t<T1>>::value,void>
operator=(T1 && Bb){
val = 5*std::forward<T1>(Bb).val;
}
};
int main(void){
A Aa;
A Bb;
int in_a = 3;
Aa = in_a;
Bb = Aa;
Aa.print();
Bb.print();
}
