Given this:

struct Num

Is there any reason why this works:

Num n = 5;

but this doesnt:

Num funk()
{
    return 5;
}

I understand that I can construct it explicitely, but that gets annoying quickly, especially with templates.

I suppose, this is too slack.

What would work is

Num funk()
{
    return typeof(return)(5);
}
