No, it has nothing to do with the return type declarations. It's 
about whether or not the compiler has enough information to 
deduce the types.

V get(V, K)(K key, V defaultVal);

auto i = 10;
i = get("key", i);

This works because the compiler sees that you have given it a 
string where it expects a K and an int where it expects a V, so 
it knows that K = string and V = int. On the other hand:

V get(V, K)(K key);

auto i = get("key");

What type is this supposed to return? Even if you do this:

int i = get("key");

Obviously, the compiler knows that i is int, but that plays no 
role in template type deduction. Only the template declaration 
and instantiation do. So we have to explicitly tell the compiler 
what type V should be in this case by passing the type as a 
template argument.

auto i = get!int("key");
