Do you want to refer to `T...` as a syntax feature or actual arguments? Former is called "template tuple parameter" as you correctly linked indeed, but for latter there is http://dlang.org/template.html#TemplateArgumentList

Both. I'm hesitant to use Template Tuple Parameter until I can know for sure that's what they will continue to be called.

"template argument list" seems like it could be confusing. Typically, a function argument list refers to all the arguments passed to the function. Given multiple template parameters with a T... at the end, I would expect template argument list to refer to all of them, not just the T...

Naturally, a slice of argument list is still an argument list (just smaller one) ;)

But on general topic - no, there is no clear and non-confusing terminology on this topic and there have never been.
