I just said:
"I thought one of the reasons for UFCS was to be able to make a type
support the range interface without modifying the type" [1].
And you replied:
"That is correct" [2].
And now you're saying that it should be a member?
That's the path of last resistance.
What if it's in the
different module?
D does not support one module to expand a type defined in another module
with 100% transparency.
Or as it is for the built-in arrays, not possible to
add a member there.
That pattern is only possible with the restrictions and limitations of
std.array.
