I have following situation:
I have a struct ``Routine`` (base type) and its specializations

```d
struct Routine (uint argscount = 1) {
string name;
void delegate(inout Arguments!argscount) return call;
}
const auto ROUTINES = [
Routine!3(":input", toDelegate(&routine_input)),
Routine!2(":print", toDelegate(&routine_print)),
];
```
I understand why the given types are not compatible.
But not how I can store any base type regardless its
specialization.
the most correct answer is nested templates
```d
template foo(T){
struct foo(T data){
...
}}
```
You can probably find an api workaround in ctfe with
`assert(__ctfe)` to make it work better; but when all else fails
this ends up being nessery(most cant read even simple ones tho)

madness and compile bugs:
`struct foo(T, T data)` will work *once*, your names a little new
for me to attempt to explain why

you should probably just use an alias:
```d
struct Routine(alias argscount = 1) {
alias T=typeof(argscount);
T[argscount] data;
}
unittest{
Routine!(ubyte(2)) foo;
Routine!3 bar;
}
```
