Why not support Tuple indexing and slicing with [] syntax?
(see below for a way to index/slice a tuple)
void main(){
alias T=Tuple!(int,double);
pragma(msg,T[0].stringof);//_expand_field_0
//pragma(msg,T[0..2].stringof); //Error: cannot slice type 'Tuple!(int, double)
pragma(msg,typeof(T.init[0]).stringof);//int
pragma(msg,typeof(tuple(T.init[0..$])).stringof);//Tuple!(int,double)
}
