Hello.
I found in the documentation functions declared like this:
```D
pure @nogc @safe BigInt opAssign(T : BigInt)(T x);
```
What is the difference to declaring it like:
```D
pure @nogc @safe BigInt opAssign(BigInt x);
```
To me the first declaration seems to be unnecessarily bloated, so I ask
myself: does it provide any kind of advantage? I can't see it.
Just a guess, but there was a time in the distant past when you could
not overload template functions with regular functions. Perhaps that's why?
Otherwise, no there really isn't a difference in this case.
