I'm having some trouble with the order in which `static

To avoid confusion: you have all `static this()` in a single
source file? Or across several source files?

They're all in a single source file. The `[template]` prints
are inside templates,
It's not clear from the language specification, but in this case
with templates, I am not surprised that the order of execution is
not the same as in the source file. Probably it does fit with the
order in the source file if you take into account where the
template is instantiated in that file (but you shouldn't depend
on that).
I strongly recommend not to depend on the order of multiple
static this execution, by either rewriting things or by including
some logic to make sure things are called in the right order
(checking that something has already run, and running it if not,
or cancel running it if it already ran)
