Except... then you can't use generic code with UFCS.

For example, arrays couldn't be ranges, because you can't just do arr.front, you'd have to do arr.\front.

Mmm... it sounds complex ;-)

to make it worse, I can apparently call func() with the parenthesis:

obj.func;

now, is func an attribute of obj?
is it a method of obj?
is it a free function?

these syntactic abstractions are leaky...we need to encapsulate intent too ;-)
