Maybe not simpler but take a look at my published Perl 6 module
Oh right. Thanks. I forgot about them. Maybe
https://docs.perl6.org/routine/run should mention them as well.
In any case a simpler way to capture everything might be useful.

program and how to get its output or even its standard error.

However it looks a lot more complex than the plain backtick Perl 5 has
and more complex than the capture function of Capture::Tiny.

I think there are a couple answers. The simple one is yes -- embrace the
whitespace. Maybe wrap them in ()', like (2 d 6).
Another line of ideas is wrapping things with some other operators. Maybe a
special quoting operator or a converter.
[[2d6]] # double for dice!
"2d6":dice # postfix. This
So I had a crazy little idea. I've played the odd bit of roleplaying in my
time and wanted to created a 'd' operator.
Quite simple really.
sub infix: ( Int $num, Int $size ) { [+] (1..$size).roll($num) };
sub prefix: ( Int $size ) { 1 d $size }
Gives us 3 d 6 to roll 3 six sided dice or a prefi
