No. Ambiguities only come into play when you use 'is'. I highly
recommend not using 'is' for arrays unless you really have a good reason,
since two slices can be 'equal' but 'point at different instances'.
For example:
auto str = "abcabc";
assert(str[0..3] == str[3..$]); // pass
assert(str[0..3] is str[3..$]); // fail
which is very counterintuitive.
