Curious effect with traits, meta, and a foreach loop ... mystifies me.

You might be able to just cast the struct to a static array of 
the same size if the types are all compatible. Like a reinterpret 
cast of the raw memory kind of idea.

struct A {
         int a;
         int b;
}

void main() {
         A a;
         int[2] as_array = cast(int[2]) a;
}


That works. But idk if it will help with your alignment issue, I 
don't know much about avx at all.

It has actually been kinda nice the last few days!

Winter coming soon though, sigh.
