Yes, this is intentional and expected. From the spec:
A TemplateMixin takes an arbitrary set of declarations from
the body of a TemplateDeclaration and inserts them into the
current context.

Notice that it is specified to work with any template
declaration, not just one declared as a `mixin template`.
Lord, I'm careless. Thanks.
So the difference between a `mixin template` and a regular one is
that the former may only be used with a `mixin` statement?
