void main() {
    import std.variant;
    import std.stdio;
    import std.traits;

    immutable ii = 1;
    const ci = ii; // implicitly convertible
    assert(isImplicitlyConvertible!(immutable(int), const(int))); // yup
    Variant v = ii;
    assert(v.convertsTo!(const(int))); // why not?
}

This also applies to arrays:

import std.traits;
import std.variant;

void main() {
  assert(isImplicitlyConvertible!(string, const(char)[])); //passes
  Variant var = "some_string";
  assert(var.convertsTo!(const(char)[])); //fails
}
