I meant what I said, and I said what I meant. Stack allocated implicitly would be
fine, but explicit stack allocation, like declaring variables, doesn't happen in
purely functional languages.

Personally, I like being able to impose this contract on myself to write
functional code, just like I like being able to use const and @safe. Apparently
I'm in the vast minority!
