Careful, people normally mean

Careful, people normally mean that if you use std::vector in two separate class files that get compiled separately and then linked together, you end up compiling all of the functions for std::vector twice. In a large project with hundreds of separate class files, this can really add up to a lot of bloat and kill you when you try to link the whole thing together.
