Operator overloading with multiple templates?

The common pattern to achieve what you want is to actually perform it in the opposite direction: provide an implicit conversion from T to the template and only define the operator for the template.

The issue with your operator+ is you have 3 template parameters, one for the return type as well as the cast, but there is no way for the compiler to automatically resolve that parameter.
