Template deduction for aliased function parameter is a very
tricky argument and it's not so simple to handle in certain
cases. Consider for example this code:
```d
template MyAlias(T){
alias MyAlias = int;

T simp(T)(MyAlias!T val){
return T.init;
}
int main(){
simp(3);//Impossible to deduce T
Why? That's the issue. It is very possible to deduce T here.
Compiler just isn't trying. The function takes an int. Doesn't
take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.
Maybe I am being silly, but it isn't possible to determine T
here. Independent of what T is the input parameter would be an
int (which the compiler can't see but we can) but the output
depends on T which can't be deduced.
