Here's another one of these apparently trivial cases which is highly likely to emerge for a new user (ie, has, in my experience, and I have to 'explain' the situation, which is anti-merit): https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/8031
The language grammar has a nontrivial amount of unintuitive cases like this one, I guess due to historical reasons. We ought to just merge the type and expression grammar and let the compiler figure out whether an AST node is a type or an expression within semantic. I might write a DIP for this after pushing the tuple DIP.
