It's actually 4. separate compilation model.
If you are building a module, and it imports a d interface file
which has no function body, there is no conceivable way to tell
what the attributes should be.
For anonymous functions, and template functions, where the
entire function body MUST be present in order to use them, the
compiler can and does infer attributes.
We would need to change the compilation model, and potentially
invent a new object file format/linker that tracks the function
attributes in order to have this work.

Makes sense, thanks.
