Indeed, I agree that the best factorization is to decouple the factory
applicator from the argument list.
In fact, the applicator should handle a generic tuple as the argument list
(with at most some custom made tuple if dependency with fusion is a problem)

Now that's a major make up for the factories, though one worth doing it IMO,
so the big quesion is: would you be interested in doing that yourself?
