--- Comment #1 from Andrej Mitrovic <andrej.mitrovich@gmail.com> ---
The problem is that to!() uses FormatSpec under the hood for types it doesn't
specialize on.

In particular it calls `toStr`, which itself uses this:

-----
import std.array : appender;
import std.format.spec : FormatSpec;
import std.format.write : formatValue;

auto w = appender!T();
FormatSpec!(ElementEncodingType!T) f;
formatValue(w, src, f);
return w.data;
-----

Internally FormatSpec tries to parse any format specs (like "%s") and does other types of conversions like to!int which can throw exceptions, hence it cannot be nothrow.

I think this issue can be fixed as part of the larger @nogc / nothrow plans in https://forum.dlang.org/thread/qkfwgqslqnuyjgidldkv@forum.dlang.org.
