Instead, it gives the idea that they're used specifically for 
arguments, which they aren't. They get used for a variety of 
things. Also, the term Arguments is going to be really confusing 
- just like talking about std.container.Array gets confusing, 
because the term array is already used for other stuff, and it's 
never clear what folks are talking about unless they get 
specific. At least when you use the term TypeTuple, everyone 
knows what you mean, even if it's a sucky name. Going with 
something like Arguments or Parameters or Aliases is just going 
to breed confusion.
