The following fails to compile with an 'cannot deduce function from argument types' error. When using an array of something other than TypeInfo_Class everything works as expected.

void main()
{
	import std.algorithm.mutation : remove;
	
	TypeInfo_Class[] arr;
	TypeInfo_Class c;
	arr = arr.remove!(a => a is c);
}

Yes, it's a bug. It should work.

The problem is that TypeInfo_Class has a method called "init" which shadows the built-in type property of the same name. This confuses ElementType.

I filed a bug: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15037

Thanks, for both confirming and submitting the issue.
