May be a regression?

Indeed: https://run.dlang.io/is/liSDBZ

It regressed in 2.079.1. Seems to be worth an issue report.

Thanks for the advice. I've since had a deeper look into this located the PR that changed this behavior [1]. It seems this change was very much deliberate. In the PR, Jonathan also makes some points that are very hard to disagree with. So, perhaps the better solution would be to make isBoolean and isSomeChar (and perhaps other functions that I didn't think of) return false for enums?

As a side note, isSomeChar returning true for enums is also what causes the
behavior demonstrated in Issue 21639 [2].
