"Support for instantiating local and member templates with local 
symbols was implemented in DMD 2.087.0. However, the 
implementation was incompatible with GDC and LDC backends.

In order to maintain feature parity among D implementations, this 
improvement has been deprecated, and may be removed from a future 
DMD release."

Urgh, so sad this was deprecated. Is the implementation being 
redone at some point?

To my understanding, the answer is no. It been brought up in 
discord that a proper fix consist of the templates having is own 
vthis.
