I don't see what this buys you compared to sticking with one

possible.
It infer function atributes (pure, nothrow @nogc @safe) for
"visitor" and let you use classes and inheritence.
With standard visitor pattern you need PureVisitor.
NothrowVisitor, PureNothrowVisitor...
It seems to me like you would also get those benefits by just
using a discriminated union, without the classes.
