I wonder if the language could be updated so these extra std::move invocations actually become harmless? return std::move is something that I see used quite a bit.

These std::move invocations are harmless, as they only cast objects to their rvalue reference.
The destructive bit takes place in the type they are assigned to, as it invokes either a move constructor or a move assignment operator, and calling those implies that the object you just passed to std::move will be invalidated after the call and should not be used subsequently.
@lysdexic You claimed otherwise:

If you were right, we wouldn’t have the motivation to look at this in EWG.
@QuadriLiteral@lysdexic We’ve been looking at a paper just recently in Kona, where the author proposed to not penalize “unfortunate” uses of std::move. I think this is user friendly and you might imagine what I’ve been voting for.

I recommend you read the thread.
@lysdexic I did.
It doesn’t look like it, otherwise you’d be aware that the whole point of this submission is that casting return values with
std::movedisables RVO.@lysdexic You claimed otherwise:
