For tuple values with named fields, we need more thoughts about semantics.
alias MyPair = typeof({1, "hi"});
alias MyRecord = typeof({count:1, msg:"hi"});
static assert(is(MyPair == MyRecord)); // true or false?
static assert(is(MyPair : MyRecord)); // true or false?
static assert(is(MyRecord : MyPair)); // true or false?
alias MyStudent = typeof({num:1, name:"John"});
static assert(is(MyRecord == MyStudent)); // true or false?
