I honestly feel bad for the C++ people here. Looks like someone
didn't explain the benefits/uses of static if very well.
It also looks like they failed to point to Phobos as an example
of great static if usage. I imagine many heads would explode
after seeing Andrei's `find` improvements with static if.
