Which operator is specifically noted for NOT being overloadable due to safety concerns?

  1. operator+

  2. operator[]

  3. operator::

  4. operator->

The correct answer is: operator::

The operator: is the correct answer because it is the scope resolution operator, which is used to access members of a class or namespace. It is not overloadable due to safety concerns because it serves a specific purpose in determining the scope of a program, and allowing it to be overloaded could potentially create confusion or conflict within the code. The other options (operator+, operator[], operator->) are all overloadable operators and do not present the same level of safety concern.
