Can't you say that for all templates passed as arguments to template template
parameters?

I'm not sure I understand when you say that the type A<Y> does not exist. I
can declare the variable "A<Y> zzz;" just fine, and I can declare a function
that takes an A<Y> as an argument, for example. A<Y> seems like a standard
template.

Sorry for my misunderstanding, I can't quite see the problem here.
