I think it's possible to extend the proposed
semantics to more initializer lists, especially
the P'[N] form supported by [temp.deduct.call].
This case is even less likely to be observed,
because P2752R0's change is visible to
std::initializer_list<T> variables (lvalue),
while in the array's case, the majority of the
people would be using array variables rather
than references to const arrays:

  auto const& r = {3, 5}; // auto is deduced to std::initializer_list
  int r[] = {3, 5}; // lvalue, distinct as is
  const int (&r)[] = {3, 5}; // who write this?
