Are there any downsides with using make_shared to create a shared_ptr

Question

Are there any downsides with using make_shared() instead of using shared_ptr(new T).

Boost documentation states

Answer 1

Additionally, make_shared is not compatible with the factory pattern. This is because the call to make_shared within your factory function calls the library code, which in turn calls new, which it doesn't have access to, since it cannot call the class's private constructor(s) (constructor(s) should be private, if you follow the factory pattern correctly).
