These seem insufficient to prevent compilation errors that bit_cast<T>(S{})
would
produce if their size is not much. My preference here would be to have some
dr-require
expressing that, but I am not sure if it is possible.

As alternative, you could use:
template<typename X, typename Y>
  void test01() {} // empty
template<typename X, typename Y>
  requires (sizeof(X) == sizeof(Y))
  void test01() {
  }
And call it test01<S, T>.

However, I think best option would be to change S, to store:
struct S { alignas(long) char a[sizeof(long)]; }
You are guaranteed to have at least 4 bytes there, so you can set them,
instead of setting members.
