Specifically: an expression can bind to a template alias parameter, but is not
allowed on the right-hand side of an alias declaration.

The reason `alias Y = X;` works but `alias Y = X[0];` doesn't is that `X` by
itself on the right-hand side is parsed as a symbol, not an expression. The
variadic parameter is a distraction.
