That was allowed in https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/15409.

Sorry.
comment #4:
> the grammar already allowed calling a parenthesized expression
I don't think (Type) is always an expression - it is when Type is an
identifier, but not when (int) or even (int*), and this now works:
int i;
scope p = (int*)(&i);
So unless I missed some part of the grammar, I think the spec needs updating.
We can make TypeCtor optional below:
PrimaryExpression:
TypeCtor ( Type ) ( NamedArgumentListopt )
