          Priority: P2

This issue is borderline between an enhancement request and a bug report.


void main() {
    double[3] a;
    pragma(msg, typeof(a[] ^^ 2));
    float[3] b;
    pragma(msg, typeof(b[] ^^ 2));
}


Output:
double[]
float[]


But I think the output should be:
double[3]
float[3]


Keeping the static information of the length of the array is useful for small
arrays for successive better optimizations.
