This strange code - https://run.dlang.io/is/BKgv49 - fails with error

there is no loops or labels.
Switch cases are labels.
But why?
You mean why is it an error? Probably because the compiler needs to
guarantee you are calling the super constructor, and it can't figure out
the flow when it sees labels/loops. Not that it's always impossible, but
it's likely a complication the compiler devs don't want to deal with.
