The first one passes an lvalue. The second one passes an rvalue. parse takes its argument by ref so that what is parsed is removed from the input. As such, it requires an lvalue.

You don't. parse requires that you pass it a variable.

std.conv.to does not take its argument by ref, so you can use that instead, but it converts the entire argument instead of just the front portion that matches the requested type. So, if you're trying to convert the entire argument, then you can use to, but if you're trying to just convert the front, then you have to use parse, and that means passing a variable.
