He didn't say that. He said that the current implementation has
operator[] but it is used in iterations only, so instead of
operator[], a iterator (which std:set supports ofcourse) would be
enough to replace those cases.

Anyway.. sorted data structures usually use binary search for any
insert which is also currently used (I hope). The only problem is the
vector as for any insert to an arbitrary position it has to copy all
succeeding elements, which can get slow when the number of elements
increases. But if this happens infrequently and the number of elements
is low, it just doesn't really matter.
