I could also see it leading to particularly annoying class of error with type inference - say you’re writing a lambda and the last line has a Unit-returning function call, let’s call it foo. Let’s say a) you don’t need :: to get a method reference and b) you forget to actually invoke the function and the lambda looks kinda like this { foo } - now the lambda returns () -> Unit and the compiler doesn’t see anything wrong with that
