Me too. Looking at Amaury's PR, there is still much of the
documentation that refers to TypeTuple. It will be
difficult/awkward to change to "Arguments". e.g.:
Returns an Arguments [instance] created from TList with the
first occurrence, if any, of T removed.
--------
Filters an Arguments [instance] using a template predicate.
Returns an Arguments [instance] of the elements which satisfy
the predicate.
I think you are going to have to add "instance" anywhere you
are talking about Arguments. And that "Arguments instance of"
reads terrible.
I don't know what the right name is, but I think it should be
singular at least.

I can do another PR to change the name. Let's already get the
TupeTuple in the old module and remove it from std.meta so at
least this monstrosity stay contained.
