Using alias in opBinary onto the object that is passed in incorrectly aliases
to "this" instead of the object passed in. It's best illustrated with some
code:

import std.stdio;

class Foo {
    int kek;

    this(int val) {
        this.kek = val;
    }
    Foo opBinary(string op)(Foo bar) if (op == "*") {
        alias k1 = this.kek;
        alias k2 = bar.kek;
        writefln("k1 = %s, this.kek = %s", k1, this.kek);
        writefln("k2 = %s, bar.kek = %s", k2, bar.kek);

        Foo f = new Foo(k1 * k2);
        return f;
    }
}

void main() {
    Foo f1 = new Foo(2);
    Foo f2 = new Foo(5);
    Foo f3 = f1 * f2;
}

The output is:

k1 = 2, this.kek = 2
k2 = 2, bar.kek = 5

The expected output would be:

k1 = 2, this.kek = 2
k2 = 5, bar.kek = 5
