simple.d(22): Error: template std.algorithm.iteration.map cannot deduce
function from argument types !()(string[], void), candidates are:
/usr/include/dlang/dmd/std/algorithm/iteration.d(431):       
std.algorithm.iteration.map(fun...) if (fun.length >= 1)


Perhaps we could check if it would compile if a ! were added to the parameters
and if so say "did you mean ...?"

Yes, one quickly gets used to it, but it's one more needless friction for
people learning the language.
