I don't understand, isn't this the right translation?
s.opDynamic("foo", 3);
If the "foo" name is known at compile time only (as in all C# examples and in 
Python) you can't use a template argument.
(And then it becomes useful to have associative arrays that are fast when the 
number of keys is small,<  10).

Probably because you can write

Variant myOpReallyDynamic(string name, Variant[] s...) {
   ...
}

Variant opDynamic(string name)(Variant[] s...) {
  return myOpReallyDynamic(name, s);
}

but not the other way round.
