How can I change the signature of distanceTo(..) to make the compiler warn or error on a call with std::size_t as parameter?

class Point {
private:
  float value;

public:
  Point(float value) : value(value){};
  float distanceTo(const Point &point) { return point.value - value; }
};

int main() {

  std::size_t index = 1;
  Point start(1);
  Point end(4);
  float dist = start.distanceTo(index); // compiles, but should not!
  std::cout << dist;

  return 0;
}


Make the constructor explicit:

explicit Point(float value) : value(value) {} // no semicolon here

This disallows implicit conversions (from size_t through float to Point), but note that it also makes code such as start.distanceTo(3.14) and Point p = 3.14; invalid.
