digitalmars.D.learn - Not getting expected behavior from compile-time conditional

Here's a simple programming showing where I'm tripping up -

void test(T)(in T value){
     import std.traits;
     static if(is(T == char)){
         writeln("char");
     }else static if(is(isNumeric!(T))){
         writeln("number");
     }
     writeln("hi");
}

public void main(){
     test('g');
     test(2);
     test(2.0);
}

Output is this -

char
hi
hi
hi

I was expecting output to look like this -

char
hi
number
hi
number
hi

How can I fix this?
