But I mean if the syntax can be more simple?
auto Add(A, B)(A a, B b); // type A, B appears twice
// Can we just make it more simple?
auto Add(a, b)

I think it could get pretty confusing. I.e.:
module foo;
struct a { }
struct b { }

module bar;
import foo;
auto Add(a, b) { } // [1]

[1] Here the unsuspecting programmer thinks he's writing a
template function, not knowing that one module he's importing
actually specifies 'a' and 'b' as types, which makes his Add a
regular function taking unnamed variables of types 'a' and 'b'.
