Of course it is. That's how structs are used.
Program causing this:
struct A(int var = 3) {
int a;
}
void main() {
A a;
}
To resolve, you need to change A into A!(). For some reason I
have not been able to fathom, default template parameters on
structs don't work like they do on functions.
Because IFTI is short for implicit function

Because IFTI is short for implicit function template
instantiation. We don't have this feature for any other type of
template, though IIRC it has been discussed before. Though one
may argue that we have this feature for mixin templates:
https://dlang.org/spec/template-mixin.html
If the TemplateDeclaration has no parameters, the mixin form that
has no !(TemplateArgumentList) can be used.
