So it turns out not to be the type-array[idx] in general.
That works as expected.
However when it's used inside an is expression.
The is-expression's type gets evaluated _before_ executes the
type function ctfe
And during that time type-array[idx] is not parsed as variable
expression.
it's parsed as the type of a static array, and assuming that idx
is an enum with numeric values
so given enum idx := 6;
type-array[6] is the type of static array.
I am still thinking about how to fix this.
