But the doc (the language ref for the matter) should definitely
say what you just explained above, shouldn't they?
Well arguably, the spec should detail the language semantics
formally and not just be a description of the reference

Well, bug in implementation. That is *supposed* to work, but
the compiler never implemented it.

The docs really should point out this fact explicitly, though.

If I'm right, you can't use this syntax with global array. Insted
this works:
void main()
{
https://dlang.org/spec/hash-map.html#static_initialization:
immutable long[string] aa = [
"foo": 5,
"bar": 10,
"baz": 2000
];
==> Error: non-constant expression `["foo":5L, "bar":10L, "baz":2000L]`
Also: I don't understand the error message:
* What is non-constant in the *expression*?
*
