I know, but it's core language feature of D! Basically every function
in the std library has some constraints. It's critical for anything
range based...
Perhaps if concepts existed, it might be a more direct and less
computationally intensive mechanism to deal with it. I've been feeling
like that'd really simplify the situation a lot for quite a few years
now.
