Fixing it so that the sizes for static arrays were read left-to-right would definitely be a usability improvement, but even if we were to decide that the whole "read the type outward from the variable name" was unimportant enough to make the change desirable, it would silently break all kinds of code at this
point, so we're stuck with it.

The way D declares static arrays makes sense and I was actually trying to access elements in the same fashion until I realized that it's reversed. I than found a remark in Andrei's book pointing out the difference.

Thanks for your reply Jonathan.
