Since I reuse the field a few times I tried to alias the result:

yeah won't work since the alias again drops the `this`, this is
the same thing as the template param.
You could make a couple helper functions though. Like
void set(typeof(field) v) {
__traits(child, s, field) = v;
}
typeof(field) get() {
return __traits(child, s, field);
}
just declare them nested inside the function and then you can use
get and set as-needed. You could make a mixin or whatever if
there's a bunch of functions doing this.
Of course another idea is to make a helper struct that just wraps
the field with opAssign and alias this or something but then it
needs to keep a pointer back to s inside that object.
