We've just enabled warnings as errors in our build system at

Warning: explicit element-wise assignment <exprnew> is better

where <exprnew> and <expr> are expressions picked from the

writeAvail_[0 .. buf.length] = buf;
but this was:
writeAvail_[0 .. buf.length] = buf[];
The type of the involved variables were as trivial as ubyte[]
and in ubyte[] respectively.
What's the idea?

Funny, I can reproduce up to 2.063.2, but not after that.
I think it was removed because detection implementation was not
mature enough and resulted in confusing behavior for corner
cases. You have already already spotted one ;)
