Why not?

The path of least resistance is to use existing language
constructs, i.e.
out result => assert(result > 0)
I consider adapting foreach syntax as using existing language
constructs (instead of inventing completely new syntax).
And while your proposal may indeed be the path of least
resistance (since you and Walter will end up deciding whether to
accept it or not), it's also the path of least benefits as it
still requires manually specifying the contract implementation.
Coupling a contract with its implementation is verbose and can
already be done with the existing syntax; imho it would ensure
that the new syntax will receive only negligible more usage than
the existing one.
