What happens here is, the compiler first tries the D2-style
rewrite:
```d
s.opIndexAssign(arr[1..4], s.opSlice!0(0, 3))
```
However, that rewrite fails to compile, because your `opSlice`
does not take a template argument

Hello Dear community.
I'd like to overload `opIndexAssign` for a struct which wraps
around a generic array (so that it can't support `opIndex` due
to unknown return type).
Broken down as much as possible this is the code:
```
import
Btw, I should have written:
`s.opIndexAssign(arr[1..4], s.opSlice(0,3));`
But it compiles the same way.
