Thanks for the explanation. I forgot about using enum instead. I 
think I've only briefly encountered it before. I'm aware of the 
global storage of static in this context. I like that it's the 
same keyword for static foreach; that's kind of what I was 
thinking when I wrote that just adding a static can result in 
compile-time execution.

You mean the Dlang tour? I've been meaning for a while to be able 
to generate a url to its Gems section but I've never managed to 
untangle its Vibe.d structure enough to do so.
