Big integer literals can be accommodated as compile-time strings.
Do you mean like this?
BigInt a = "12_345_678_900_345_678_900_000";
If that's what you say, then it's OK. There are more important things to think
about.
Needs to be something like:
BigInt a = bigIntLiteral!"12_345_678_900_345_678_900_000";
Anyway, I think this feature is thoroughly useless. An adage says that
the only numeric literals in a program should be 0, 1, and -1. How many
big integer literals can you think of right now?
