It's in the user side. In druntime it is void[] + typeinfo. I am not
aware of any part in dmd/druntime where arrays are repsented as

current treatment can be barely called templatization as there is no
templates, template instantiations and typicall horrible mangling at
all. More precise description is not templatization but some kind of
implicit conversion from array of specific type in source code to void
array plus typeinfo in runtime library. If user tries to use struct
Array(T) {...} instead of usual arrays he will gain no benefit but
useless template bloat.
Yes, but that is easier to type. All the above or:
struct Array (T)
{
size_t length;
T* ptr;
}
