I found this also works:
static foreach(alias x; S.tupleof)
{
writeln(x.offsetof);

Yes, the implementation uses offsetof.
I guess I'm just confused based on the statement "the builtin
.tupleof ... [omits] the essential information of field
offsets."
What is this construct giving us that .tupleof doesn't?
I guess the construct captures offsets as part of type. This is
useful for allocators + 2 things with same Layout can be
bitblitted to each other.
