void bla(T...)(T args)
{
    foreach(idx, arg; args)
    blub(idx, arg);
}

void blub(T)(short idx, T arg) // on x64, replace short with int to get a more
real world case
{
}

void main()
{
    bla(5, 2);
}

templ.d(4): Error: template templ.blub(T) does not match any function template
declaration
templ.d(4): Error: template templ.blub(T) cannot deduce template function from
argument types !()(uint,int)
templ.d(4): Error: template templ.blub(T) does not match any function template

templ.d(13): Error: template instance templ.bla!(int,int) error instantiating


It wasn't obvious for me that it couldn't implicitly convert the idx argument.
