Maybe a noob question but why these two lines:
vector<char> v{"h","i"};
string s1(v.cbegin(), v.cend());
won't compile? It says "debug assertion failed, exception:transposed pointer range".
Using iterator to initialize string, get "transposed pointer range" exception

Debug assetions happen in run-time, not compile time.
In any case, you should change:
vector<char> v{"h","i"};
to:
vector<char> v{ 'h','i' };
char literals should be enclosed with ', not ".
This way your code should compile and run properly.
See also @Eljay's comment above for more info how the compiler actually interpreted your current code.
Side note: better to avoid using namespace std - see here Why is "using namespace std;" considered bad practice?.
