I think my main problem with this is that I'm perfectly happy with the

I found it a bit long compared to other languages in the beginning,
but I've been using them heavily since you added them to Phobos and
I'm now quite happy with them. I even like the .expand thingy.
(I have a few nitpicks, about std.typecons.tuple, but those would be
the subject of another thread)
I'd be more excited to invent notation if there was overwhelming
or at least considerable evidence that the notation considerably helps
certain use cases, or is very frequent. As things are, I'd be quite "meh"
about suddenly adding lenses.
OK.
One standard use for tuples is assignment:
a,b = someTuple; // a and b already exist in this scope
auto (c,d) = someTuple; // creates c and d
and similar variations, which Phobos' tuples do not provide.
And the auto flatten stuff is really weird, and sometime get into the way.
