Expressions aliases have a lot of problems when postfixes are
involved.
Assuming Neat grammar is similar to D, things like
alias memberCall = member.call();
would give, as used in the source code
context.memberCall;
which is then lowered to
context.(member.call());
while it should be
(context.member).call();
So it's no only the unintentional capture problem here, it also
now about precedence. Unless you'be already aware of the problem
(or maybe you'd use your macro system ?) I have more examples
[here](https://gitlab.com/styx-lang/styx/-/blob/master/src/styx/semantic/expressions.sx?ref_type=heads#L521).
