But (!) `to!` inconsiderately smuggled into the code is bubble. 
So we will obviously be deceived at a later moment. Thereby 
making nonsense further clamour for shorten...:)

Then how did the evolution of the code evolve into the current 
form?

```d
    auto zar = "123".to!Foo;
    auto bar = to!(Foo)("123");
    auto foo = to!Foo("123"); // <-- this line is bubble
```
