Do infinite bidirectional ranges make any sense?

I have implemented a simple Turing machine (to test a busy
beaver) in D where the tape is finite in both directions, but
when the machine tries to write past one of the ends of the tape,
it grows longer as needed. I have not used ranges to implement
this, but maybe they are usable for this.
