I agree. In particular I find it a specious argument to insist on 
religiously associating "()" with function calling and the lack thereof 
with variable access. I don't see myself, when seeing an expression like 
"generator(x, y, z).map!(x => x * x)()", going like "holy cow, good I 
saw those trailing parens, otherwise I would've sworn it was a 
variable". Trailing parens in UFCS chains are just warts, this is the 
reality. Let's deal with it.
