import std.meta : Instantiate;

template A() {
    template A() {
        enum A = 1;
    }
}

unittest {
    enum i = Instantiate!(A!());
}

Now, that shows it's possible in the language to work around this issue. The real issue however, is that multiple ! arguments are not allowed.

>From what I can gather on the forum, the reason is a perceived ambiguity, in
that F!T!int could mean F!(T!int) or (F!T)!int. The language already provides tools to disambiguate between them - the first example is how you'd invoke it that way, and the other example is simply impossible in the language right now.
